To achieve health for all, the development of partnerships between community residents and researchers is essential. Community-based participatory research (CBPR) engages community members, uses local knowledge in the understanding of health problems and the design of interventions, and invests community members in the processes and products of research. CBPR pivots on an iterative process of open communication, mutual respect, and power sharing to build community capacity to sustain effective health interventions. This article describes how the tenets of CBPR were applied by a multidisciplinary, international research team of maternal-child health specialists toward better health for women and children in multilingual, multiethnic, low socioeconomic communities in Karachi, Pakistan.
为实现全民健康，社区居民和研究人员之间建立伙伴关系至关重要。以社区为基础的参与式研究（CBPR）使社区成员参与其中，利用当地知识理解健康问题和设计干预措施，并使社区成员参与研究过程和成果。CBPR 以开放沟通、相互尊重和权力共享的迭代过程为基础，建立社区能力，以维持有效的健康干预措施。本文描述了多学科、多国籍母婴健康专家国际研究团队如何将 CBPR 的原则应用于巴基斯坦卡拉奇的多语言、多民族、低社会经济社区，以改善妇女和儿童的健康。
