A workshop from the CUNY SPH’s Harlem Health Initiative.
This workshop will present an introduction to Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR), a powerful framework to improve community health. CBPR provides guiding principles for communities to mobilize their power and resources, and to work collaboratively with researchers to improve health and health equity. The workshop will be presented by two professors from the CUNY SPH Department of Community Health and Social Sciences. We will cover fundamental elements of CBPR – what it is, how it works, and how it can benefit your community – and include specific examples of successful CBPR efforts. There will be plenty of time for Q&A, and also an opportunity to brainstorm ideas for how your communities and organizations can engage in, and benefit from, community engaged research.
