The PARTICIPATORY INFORMATION SYSTEMS APPRAISAL (PISA) Action Guide systematically introduces and explains the concepts and strategies needed to make well informed, data-based decisions while empowering key stakeholders in the process. The action guide outlines team preparation activities, data collection methods, data analysis and action planning, and team learning & follow up activities. Local facilitators and key project stakeholders are actively involved in data instrument design, collection, reporting and analysis. Data collection methods are tailored for literate and pre-literate, urban and rural communities alike. A variety of techniques appropriate to the target community such as primary and secondary information sources, semistructured focus groups, and participatory mapping and modeling tools support effective assessment and decision making.
