Call for PHR Literature Reviews from Graduate Students

1/26/2018

0 Comments

 
Dear ICPHR members and friends,
 
I have been thinking about ways we can capitalise on work each of us is already doing in building a strong evidence base in all areas of PHR. One area that often goes underappreciated is the richness of work our graduate students do in preparing literature reviews for their masters and doctoral theses.
 
These reviews often go unpublished, despite being valuable syntheses of the knowledge in each specialised corner of the PHR world where the student’s research is focussed.
 
We would like, therefore, to give you and your students the opportunity to publish thesis lit review chapters on the ICPHR website. This would archive and make them publicly available, while building a categorised database of valuable knowledge.  THE REVIEWS CAN BE IN ANY LANGUAGE!
 
We are looking for lit reviews/syntheses that specifically pertain to the participatory process. I.e., not the general review on the thesis topic such as “the state of the literature in home care nursing,” but yes to “the use of participatory engagement methods in improving home care nursing.” So this might be a portion of the overall review.
 
Once published on the ICPHR website, you and your students would retain copyright and would be free to submit your reviews to journals for publication. Many major journals (such as Milbank Quarterly, for example) allow you to leave the original pre-submission version of your work on the website, as long as you direct the readers to the final published version as well. Otherwise you are always free to remove the review from the ICPHR site and later replace it with the final published version.
 
If you are interested in pursuing this, please feel free to contact me (jon.salsberg@ul.ie) or simply send on your lit review section for posting.
 
Many thanks!
 
Jon Salsberg

Call for a working group on Participatory Epidemiology

3/13/2017

0 Comments

 
Dear ICPHR-Participants
Mario Bach from the Robert Koch Institute (a national public health institute in Germany) would like to invite you to take part in a working group to be held on the 2017 ICPHR working meeting in Limerick. The group will focus on participatory research practices in health reporting and epidemiology.
 
Background
Epidemiology and health reporting are contributing in many ways to identifying various risk factors for disease and to promoting population health. However, there is a continuing debate about the ability of epidemiology not only to describe, but also to provide results which can be better translated into public health practice. It has been proposed that applying participatory research approaches to epidemiology as a way to bridge this gap between description and action. Within the context of PartKommPlus-Research Consortium for Healthy Communities the conceptual framework Participatory Epidemiology was developed to address this gap (see link below).
 
Aim of the working group
An introduction into the concept will be provided and selected examples of participatory epidemiological practice will be presented. In the working group methodological and practical issues like defining the population, reconsidering context, or synthesizing heterogeneous data can be discussed concerning your own experiences. The working group aims to share ideas and experiences in participatory data acquisition and usage for health reporting and epidemiology. The group will be chaired by Mario Bach.
 
Kind regards
Mario Bach, Susanne Jordan, Claudia Santos-Hövener
 
The conceptual framework is available at: http://ete-online.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12982-017-0056-4

1 Annual Working Meeting 2016 a Success
 
The Seventh Annual Working Meeting was held in Malmö (Sweden) from August 25th to August 27th.  A pre-conference took place in Göteborg on August 24th where work being conducted in Sweden was presented and international speakers addressed current issues in participatory health research.  The minutes of the Annual Working Meeting will be posted soon on the website.  Also, the list of projects will be updated.  A special thanks to the ICPHR members Margareta Rämgård from Malmö University and Maria Magnusson from the University of Gothenburg and Angered Hospital for organizing and hosting the both meetings!
 
2 ICPHR Kids in Action Initiative
 
Children are an often overlooked group when it comes to participatory research projects.  We have an exciting new opportunity for those who are interested in conducting Participatory Health Research (PHR) with children – the Kids in Action multi-country 3 year collaborative initiative.  The initiative, officially launched at the Annual Working Meeting in Malmö, is being coordinated by Prof. Lisa Gibbs, Director of the Jack Brockhoff Child Health and Wellbeing Program and Unit Head of the Evidence and Child Health Unit in the Centre for Health Equity, Melbourne School of Population and Global Health at the University of Melbourne (Australia).  You can find out more about Kids in Action by going to the new page on our website where there is also information about registering. 
 
3 *New* Publication Documenting the History of the ICPHR
 
ICPHR member Dr. Wendy Madsen from the School of Human, Health and Social Services at the Central Queensland University (Australia), has published the article “‘There and back again’: International Collaboration for Participatory Health Researchers’ journeys to evidence based practice and practice based evidence,” documenting the historical development of the ICPHR.  The article can be found in the International Journal of Action Research, Volume 12, Issue 3 (2016), pp. 294-314. 
 4 Save the Date! Annual Working Meeting 2017 in Ireland
 
The Annual Working Meeting 2017 will not take place in Galway (Ireland) as previously announced, but rather in Limerick, from 25-27 May 2017.  A pre-conference will take place earlier that week in Galway to which all ICPHR will be invited.  We will keep you posted through the newsletter and on our website as the details become available.
 
5 Add us to Your Website
 
Adding a link to the ICPHR website is an important way you can contribute to spreading the word about our work!

We are delighted to announce that registration for the Kids in Action Initiative is now open!
If you are involved in conducting some form of health research, with children under 14 years involved as decision makers and co-researchers, we would love to have you in our Kids in Action international network.

Just go to http://www.icphr.org/kids-in-action.html to submit your application for free registration.
​
The Kids in Action network is being established to increase the profile of participatory research with children, to offer local projects increased credibility in their efforts to fund and resource their projects, to provide a platform for shared learning and development of these methods, and a means for generating resources to share with others to support the use of participatory health research with children. There may also be interest among the Kids in Action members to contribute child input into debate about global issues.
