Abstract

The stipulation of the covid-19 virus as a global pandemic has resulted in massive changes in all aspects of life for the world community. The increasing number of cases of covid-19 transmission accompanied by an increasingly significant number of deaths has an impact on the imposition of social distancing or physical distancing in a number of countries. This has led to changes in the order of life of the Indonesian people, especially the socio-economic conditions of the Indonesian people which have experienced a lot of decline, so that it requires efforts to empower them. PRA (Participatory Rural Appraisal) is an approach to community empowerment that involves active community participation. It’s just that, during the Covid-19 Pandemic, PRA experienced problems in its implementation because of the physical distancing policy. Therefore, this paper will explain the actualization of PRA during the Covid-19 pandemic. This paper originates from a qualitative research conducted in Karanglo Village, Klaten Regency, Central Java. The method of data collection is done by using the method of observation, interviews, and document studies using data triangulation techniques as a method of data validity. This research focuses on: (1) Implementation of the PRA approach in the empowerment process of the Karanglo village community during the Covid-19 pandemic, (2) The results of the identification of problems and potentials of the Karanglo village community originating from the PRA process carried out, (3) Opportunities and challenges of implementing PRA during the Covid-19 pandemic.
