“Our Action Plan was Completely Changed”: Adapting, surviving, and collaborating through participatory action research during the Covid‐19 pandemic

Abstract

AbstractThis article discusses a participatory action research (PAR) team's response and adaptation to the COVID‐19 pandemic amid multiple crises in Puerto Rico. Drawing on an ethnographic study of a PAR collaboration, the article: 1) examines four key dilemmas that emerged during the study, 2) emphasizes the significance of reciprocal partnerships anchored in solidarity, and 3) underscores the vital role of a decolonial feminist approach in sustaining and maintaining the projects at the onset of the pandemic.
