This research is very important to know the use of
Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) which is as a method of
participatory planning on development planning and the
efforts of government village in engaging all community
groups and stakeholders in deliberation planning. The result
of observation of development planning was not optimal as
expected. This was due to lack of clarity about the tools used
to search for the priority activities. With the use of PRA
planning in the process of management of existing resources
as well as carried out by involving the community as a whole
in accordance with the assessment in each sector. By using
the use of PRA methods, this is hoped that it will create a
system of participatory rural development planning in the
process of management of existing resources as well as it is
carried out by involving the community as a whole in
accordance with the assessment in each field. For this
purpose, the methods required to find out is an observation,
interview and conducting studies relating to the research
literature. The results seem to be that the application of the
PRA method is still minimal. The use of PRA is only limited
in the direct meeting of deliberation planning involving the
village level with citizens groups widely ranging lowest
village levels such as groups of residents or neighborhood
associations (RT). Deeper proposed development plan is not
through the process of digging the problem by studying the
fields of development.
