Community-based participatory research (CBPR) is a partnership approach to research in which academic, community-based and community serving organizations and residents equally share expertise and responsibility for planning, conducting, evaluating and disseminating the results of the research. Knowledge and products gained from the research are directed to improving community well-being. Through readings, speakers and practice with examples from Detroit projects, this course will focus on how CBPR principles transform the process and outcomes of social and health research that lead to increased partner capacities and successful program and policy interventions.
