Implementing Strategies for Inclusive Research
HOW DOES COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT CONTRIBUTE TO STRONGER SCIENCE?
Community engaged research (CEnR) is a process in which academic researchers work collaboratively with and through community members to identify and address issues affecting well-being in communities. CEnR has been endorsed and recommended by many, but applied by relatively few. This one-day symposium will provide opportunities to learn about and discuss the benefits gained from CEnR, as well as its challenges and strategies for conducting this CEnR successfully with a focus on cardiovascular disease and cancer. This meeting will also be an opportunity to learn from and network with community members who have identified research priorities for their communities.
