Community-based participatory research in public health focuses on social, structural, and physical environmental inequities through active involvement of community members, organizational representatives, and researchers in all aspects of the research process. Partners contribute their expertise to enhance understanding of a given phenomenon and integrate the knowledge gained with action to benefit the community involved. This article presents key principles of community-based participatory research (CBPR), discusses the rationale for its use, and provides a number of policy recommendations at the organizational, community and national levels aimed at advancing the application of CBPR. While the issues addressed here draw primarily upon experiences in the United States, the emphasis throughout this article on the establishment of policies to enhance equity that would serve both to increase the engagement of communities as partners in health research, and to reduce health disparities, has relevant applications in a global context.
公共卫生领域基于社区的参与性研究通过让社区成员、组织代表和研究人员积极参与研究过程的各个方面，关注社会、结构和自然环境方面的不平等。合作伙伴贡献其专业知识，以增进对特定现象的理解，并将获得的知识与行动相结合，使相关社区受益。本文介绍了基于社区的参与性研究（CBPR）的关键原则，讨论了其应用的基本原理，并在组织、社区和国家层面提供了一些政策建议，旨在推动CBPR的应用。虽然这里讨论的问题主要借鉴了美国的经验，但本文始终强调制定政策以促进公平，这既有助于提高社区作为健康研究合作伙伴的参与度，又有助于减少健康差距，在全球范围内都有相关应用。
