In this article, we analyze the question: What are the key characteristics for an alliance between an outside university and local actors to promote participatory research? We use the ladder of participation (Briggs, 1989) and the insider-outsider spectrum for researcher positionality (Herr and Anderson, 2005) to analyze examples of research done by outside universities in Waslala, Nicaragua. We argue that outside researchers should ally with local stakeholders to improve and ensure participation in all stages of the research process - formulating the research question, data collection, analysis and dissemination of results. Key features to facilitate participation in each stage include: the presence of cultural mediators, opportunities for communication and dissemination in multiple languages and using different means to reach different audiences, and for a project to be part of an alliance with purposes beyond which only research.
