Community-Based Participatory Research Principles
These principles are integral to the community-based participatory research model.
As community-based participatory research, the CHAMACOS Study:
- Recognizes community as a unit of identity
- Builds on partners’ strengths and assets
- Focuses on locally relevant problems & social determinants of health
- Prioritizes co-learning and a power sharing process
- Systems development & local capacity building
- Balances research and action
- Commits for the long haul to enable sustainability
