2 Ethics in Participatory Health Research: Request for Case Examples and Case Studies
As discussed at our last Annual Working Meeting in Newcastle in June we will be collecting case examples for a broader discussion on ethics in Participatory Health Research. These examples will illustrate the issues raised in our position paper on ethics, available on the website. For more information about the case examples and case studies, click here. Feel free to submit your case studies in languages other than English. We will work with our language coordinators to find ways to incorporate these studies into the sites which are currently being developed in other languages. We look forward to hearing from you!
3 A National Study of Community-Academic Partnerships
The NARCH research partnership co-led by ICPHR member Dr. Nina Wallerstein is a multi-site investigation into the facilitators and barriers of Community Based Participatory Research (CBPR) in underserved communities in order to improve health status and health equity. The pilot project was initiated in 2006 and since has expanded to study 200 CBPR projects in the United States including 7 in-depth case studies. Please visit our members publications page to view publications on this project.
