With its commitment to balancing research and action, community-based participatory research (CBPR) is well suited to efforts at the intersections of science, practice, and policy to eliminate health disparities. Drawing on a larger study, we use 2 case studies to highlight the role of CBPR in helping achieve policy changes promoting, respectively, access to healthy foods (Bayview, San Francisco, CA) and higher air quality standards (Harlem, New York, NY). We then present facilitating factors and challenges faced across all 10 case studies from the larger study. Although we underscore the importance of analyzing contribution rather than claiming attribution in policy-focused work, CBPR's attention to both the distributive and the procedural justice necessary for eliminating health disparities may make it a particularly relevant approach in such work.
基于其在研究和行动之间取得平衡的承诺，以社区为基础的参与式研究（CBPR）非常适合在科学、实践和政策的交叉点上努力消除健康差距。我们借鉴了一项更大的研究，使用 2 个案例研究来突出 CBPR 在帮助实现以下政策变革方面的作用，这些政策变革分别促进了获得健康食品（旧金山湾景，加利福尼亚州）和提高空气质量标准（纽约哈莱姆，纽约州）。然后，我们提出了在更大规模研究中的所有 10 个案例研究中面临的促进因素和挑战。尽管我们强调在以政策为重点的工作中分析贡献而不是主张归属的重要性，但 CBPR 对消除健康差距所需的分配和程序正义的关注，可能使其成为此类工作的一个特别相关的方法。
