There is an extensive body of literature on community-based participatory research (CBPR) and the role of community-academic partnerships, much of which has involved community partners in the conceptualization and preparation of publications. However, there has been a relative dearth of solely community voices addressing these topics, given the other roles and responsibilities which community members and leaders of community-based organizations (CBOs) have.
The purpose of this article is to share the perspectives of three long-time (>20 years) community partners involved in the Detroit Community-Academic Urban Research Center and its affiliated partnerships.
In this article, we community partners provide our assessment of the benefits and challenges in using a CBPR approach at the personal, organizational, and community levels; the factors that facilitate effective partnerships; and our lessons learned through engagement in CBPR. We also present specific recommendations from a community perspective to researchers and institutions interested in conducting CBPR.
关于基于社区的参与式研究(CBPR)以及社区 - 学术伙伴关系的作用,已有大量文献,其中很多都让社区伙伴参与到出版物的概念化和准备工作中。然而,鉴于社区成员和社区组织(CBOs)领导者的其他角色和职责,专门论述这些主题的社区声音相对较少。
本文旨在分享三位长期(超过20年)参与底特律社区 - 学术城市研究中心及其附属伙伴关系的社区伙伴的观点。
在本文中,我们这些社区伙伴对在个人、组织和社区层面采用CBPR方法的益处和挑战、促进有效伙伴关系的因素以及我们通过参与CBPR所学到的经验教训进行了评估。我们还从社区角度向有兴趣开展CBPR的研究人员和机构提出了具体建议。
