Emancipatory Research

Emancipatory research is a type of research that aims to empower marginalized or oppressed groups by involving them directly in the process. It seeks to understand their experiences and challenges, and actively works to address social injustices. This approach values the voices of those affected by issues, promoting their participation in shaping the research and its outcomes. By doing so, emancipatory research fosters knowledge that can lead to social change, giving people the tools and understanding needed to advocate for their own rights and improve their situations.
