This groundbreaking resource explores core issues in participatory
health research (PHR) and traces its global emergence as a force
for improving health and well-being, healthcare services, and
quality of life. The PHR approach is defined as including community
members, health practitioners, and decision-makers as
co-researchers, using local knowledge to reduce disparities in
care, advocate for responsive health policy, and accelerate
positive change in society as a whole. The book's first half
surveys themes essential to the development of the field, including
evaluating PHR projects, training professionals in conducting PHR,
and the ambitious work of the International Collaboration for
Participatory Health Research. International perspectives showcase
the varied roles of PHR in addressing urgent local health problems
in their specific public health and sociocultural contexts. Among
the topics covered: Demonstrating impact in participatory health
