Abstract: In 2019, the Faculty for Social Wellbeing collaborated with the Local Council of Msida to engage in a community-based research project. This project, titled ‘Empowering Communities through Networking: A Participatory Action Research Approach’, aimed to identify the strengths and weaknesses that exist within the community, in order to recommend redirection of existing resources that may fill any gaps present. The experience of being a part of this project highlighted the importance of involving research participants as co-researchers in the process of generating knowledge about a particular community.
