Community-Based Participatory Research

Thursday, April 8 - Friday, April 9, 2010

University of Houston Campus (Room TBA)

 

2^nd Annual JERHRE Workshop co-sponsored by the University of Houston Center for Public Policy and the Community-Campus Partnerships for Health (CCPH).* 

 

This workshop will draw on the expertise of academicians and community leaders, to examine the challenges of conducting CBPR and the qualities that make it successful. Building on the discussions in our first workshop (see the 2009 program and materials) participants will examine the definition of what community is, focusing on alternative contexts such as online communities, neighborhoods, institutions, and cultural groups. The workshop will also explore ways to creating a research relationship between academicians and the community that can last for decades and optimize its knowledge potential. Read the full announcement.
