Community-based research (CBR) offers useful insights into the
challenges associated with conducting research and ensuring that it
generates both excellent scholarship and positive impacts in the
communities where the research takes place. This depends on two
important variables: the capacity of CBR to generate good
information, and the extent to which CBR is understood and
constructed as a two-way relationship that includes a set of
responsibilities for both researchers and communities. Offering
expert advice on the crucial relationship between communities and
researchers, the authors outline the main stages of the CBR process
to guide researchers and practitioners. They discuss the reasons
for conducting CBR, provide tips on how to design research, and
detail how researchers and communities should get to know one
another, as well as how best to work in the field and how to turn
fieldwork into research that counts. By focusing on the lessons
learned from the use of CBR, the authors make the messages,
lessons, and practices applicable to a variety of research
settings. Drawing collectively from decades of community-based
research experience and including vignettes from researchers from
around the world who share their CBR experiences, Doing
Community-Based Research is an essential book for scholars,
students, practitioners, and the educated public.
