Community Partnered Research Award
This unique award is intended to nurture an existing community-engaged research partnership, and/or facilitate the establishment of a new partnership through trust building, skills development, partnership, and co-learning. The community research partner may learn about research design, proposal development, and/or skills that might enhance operations and build organizational capacity (e.g., program development and evaluation) to engage in action-oriented, community-engaged research. The academic faculty researcher partner may learn more about community health-related needs and priorities and the lived experiences of community members; how community organizations prioritize, function, and/or overcome obstacles; and how community-engaged research is implemented through partnership and in community settings.
