Traditional research seeks to identify and meet individual needs within existing social systems, with problems defined and studied by researchers. COPAR seeks social transformation, with problems and investigations defined and undertaken by community members themselves. While the ideal COPAR model involves immersive community engagement, the practiced model often involves shorter timeframes and relies on pre-existing survey forms and problem definitions from few community members rather than comprehensive analysis.
