Participatory- Means that people are involved in the process- requires good communication skills and attitude of project stuff. Resource- Source of supply of something that is available for somebody to use (Natural Resource). Appraisal- The finding out of information about problems, needs etc. It is the first stage in any project.
Definition : Participatory Appraisal of Natural Resources (PANR) is a way of learning from local community about the natural resources. It is based on Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA), a field-based methodology which has evolved and spread in 1990s.
How different is PANR from PRA? PANR is based on PRA type inquiry where PRA is a generic term covering incorporation of Knowledge and opinions of rural people in the planning and management of development projects and programmes, while the PANR stands for such local community participation around natural resources. The main objective of PANR is to distinguish it from PRA-type inquieries and sharpen its focus to highlight the relationship of local communities and natural resources.
Principles of PANR: Principles of PANR are derived from PRA. These are- Listening and Learning : PANR is based on the principle of listening and learning through participation and learning progressively. Offsetting biases: PANR aims at offsetting biases which generally accompany a “rushed” appraisal by professionals for quick results.
Proper utilization of precious community time: PANR is based on the principle of utilizing precious community time in the best possible way. Seeking diversity: PANR involves learning from diverse conditions and different actors. Cross-Checking: It is an important principle of PANR for minimizing errors in the results obtained.
The four wheels of PANR: PANR has four integral aspects- 1. Attitudes and Behaviour: It helps in constitute the base for approaching and establishing links with local communities. 2. Process of Participation : Process of Participation implies way or ways in which participation occurs. • Process of rapport building • Process of learning • Pace of participatory process • Broadening and deepening participatory process.
3.Methods:Some important methods for interactive participation are-time line, semi-structured interview, transect walk, vector scoring, matrix scoring, etc. 4. Sharing: Sharing is integral to PANR. Informations accumulated from local communities needs to share with other for further learning take place.
Future Prospects:  PANR can help in managing the natural resourses of rural areas on a sustainable basis. PANR will also help the country to become economically more stronger.
