Applying principles of community-based research to an existing project
Date: Wednesday, November 20th, 2024
Time: Lunch served at 12:30pm; workshop 1-3pm.
Location: Merchant’s Corner, 541 Selkirk Avenue (Community classroom)
Facilitated by Dr. Julie Chamberlain, Urban and Inner-City Studies, University of Winnipeg
You want to take a community-based approach in a research project but you’re starting from an idea or proposal that has already been approved, maybe even funded? How can you integrate CBR principles of community leadership, participation, meaningful relationships and action for change when the research question might not have emerged from the community itself?
Join the Community-Based Research Training Centre for a workshop exploring this common question. We’ll discuss key principles, practices and methods that university researchers can use to infuse CBR values into a project. This workshop will appeal to students, faculty members, and other researchers interested in community-based approaches.
Lunch will be provided. Please register to assist our planning.: https://forms.gle/9Sk2EZgvwMBfrFAo6
OUTREACH PRESENTATION: Community-Based Participatory Research: A Primer
This presentation looks at Community-Based Research through its core principles, its history, and how it is specifically approached by the CBRTC. After this presentation, participants should understand what it means for research to be community-led, participatory, action oriented, and involve meaningful relationships. Participants will become familiar with some arguments for why Community-Based Research is important, the limitations it faces, and what opportunities are available to do this approach in Manitoba.
