Community-Based Participatory Research partnerships typically do not include adolescents as full community partners. However, partnering with adolescents can enhance the success and sustainability of adolescent health interventions. We partnered with adolescents to address health disparities in a low-income urban community. In partnering with youth, it is important to consider their developmental stage and needs to better engage and sustain their involvement. We also learned the value of a Youth Development framework and intentionally structuring a youth-friendly Community-Based Participatory Research environment. Finally, we will raise some ethical responsibilities to consider when working with youth partners.
基于社区的参与性研究伙伴关系通常不将青少年作为完整的社区伙伴纳入其中。然而,与青少年建立伙伴关系可以提高青少年健康干预措施的成功率和可持续性。我们与青少年合作,以解决低收入城市社区的健康差距问题。在与青少年合作时,重要的是要考虑他们的发育阶段和需求,以便更好地吸引并维持他们的参与。我们还认识到青年发展框架的价值,并有意构建一个对青年友好的基于社区的参与性研究环境。最后,我们将提出一些在与青年伙伴合作时需要考虑的道德责任。
