EMBRACING PARTICIPATION IN DEVELOPMENT: Wisdom from the Field 3.35 2.5 Body maps The body mapping technique was used a lot during the participatory appraisals carried out with adolescents in Zambia. This tool is very useful for understanding the level of knowledge and the type of information individuals and groups have about the human reproductive system. This diagramming method requires the participants to draw maps of the female and male bodies, with emphasis on detailing the respective reproductive system and how it functions. The same can also be used by the participants to mark what they consider to be the male and female erogenous zones. With a visual like the body map, it is very easy to focus the discussion on the group’s understanding of the reproductive system and to find out whether there are any gaps in their knowledge and whether the information they have is distorted in any way. School girls used the blackboard to draw body maps in Chawama, Zambia. These body maps are best carried out in gender-segregated groups, with 4-7 participants. Body maps can be prepared on large sheets of paper or on the ground using chalk. Following are two examples of body mapping. A PREGNANT WOMAN drawn by a group of 13-year old girls (not attending school). Old Kanyama Compound Young women in Kibango, Rwanda draw body maps. Part 3 Body mapping by a group of school girls. Chawama Compound FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM Note: The girls explained that the sperm flows from the top of the body (“from somewhere”) to one egg and then to the other egg. MALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM Note: The fetus is shown as a baby in a dress and also has a hair-do! When we asked what this woman is carrying in her hands we were told - “Her handbag and a basket of fruits. A pregnant woman must eat a lots of fruits.”
