Abstract
ABSTRACT International development partnerships are characterised by inherent power relations with community partners often seen as needing assistance in fixing their problems. In this paper, we discuss the limitations of this perspective on the example of gender equality in the Pacific. We explore applied theatre tools to work with a variety of stakeholders to problematise policy issues while exploring different worldviews and knowledges. Our work demonstrates how the voices of community-based organisations can be recognised by governments and donor agencies and how practices of applied theatre can provide tools for designing, reflecting, and advocating for change in joint partnerships.
