Developing and Sustaining Partnership: Community-Based Public Health Caucus
Partnership:This CEI is definitely co-sponsored by the Community-Based Public Health Caucus. We also believe the Academic Public Health Caucus will be interested in signing on as well.
Statement of Purpose and Institute Overview:
While partnerships between communities, universities and public health agencies have become central to national public health practice and research agendas, there is a continuing need for training and education in community-based participatory research (CBPR). The Community-Institutional Partnerships for Prevention Research Group has worked to synthesize knowledge about CBPR partnerships across multiple partners. The Group identified evidence-based characteristics of successful CBPR partnerships, factors that facilitate and impede success, and strategies for building the capacity of communities, public health agencies, and academic institutions to engage in CBPR. The group has translated its work into training curriculum that includes a series of short presentations using case studies and interactive exercises designed to trigger discussion and equip participants with strategies and tools for developing and sustaining CBPR partnerships. This interactive skill-building institute will use the curriculum to guide participants in exploring issues relevant to their own CBPR partnerships.
