“…Two final articles focus on broader issues relevant to all CBPR partnerships for addressing disparities. Coombe, Chandanabhumma, et al (2020) proposed an approach to defining and measuring synergy in CBPR for addressing health disparities; and Rodríguez‐Espinosa, Sussman, Pearson, Oetzel, and Wallerstein (2020) article focuses on the analysis of personal outcomes resulting from CBPR work. All these articles present different approaches to conducting CBPR according to the context and the population as well as its application to various health equity issues.…”

This special issue highlights work that contributes to our understanding of health disparities and community‐based participatory research (CBPR) approaches to promoting health equity across diverse populations and issues that matter to communities. We take on a global perspective, and thus, various efforts across international contexts are illustrated. Articles elucidate a variety of CBPR approaches designed to empower and build capacity among individuals and communities in order to seek changes at the level of community practices, programs, and systems. These articles span across diverse populations—children, youth, and families; adults and older adults; immigrants; refugees; Black people; Latinx people; Native Americans/Indigenous people, the Roma community; Muslim women, and women with disabilities—experiencing inequities of interest to community psychologists and other researchers and practitioners.

Measuring different aspects of partnerships can yield insights into collaboration dynamics (e.g., Boursaw et al, 2021), but some aspects may be more important in some forms of partnership or contexts than in others.…”

Community‐engaged Research Approaches: Multiple Pathways To Health Equity

The last few decades have seen growing acceptance and use of research approaches involving non-academic partners. As reflected in the two recent special issues/sections of this journal addressing community-based participatory research (CBPR; Suarez-Balcazar et al., 2020;Wallerstein, 2021), these approaches have moved fairly rapidly from the fringes of scholarly conversations to their current position in multiple disciplinary mainstreams, particularly in public health and community psychology. Termed variously (e.g., CBPR, participatory action research; PAR; and community-university partnerships), communityengaged approaches to research (CEnR approaches) now appear in wide range of academic funding mechanisms and research programs, many of which target conditions associated with health inequities.With the benefits and validity of CEnR becoming more established in the mainstream, we are seeing scholarly conversations focus increasingly on the training, funding, incentivization, and evaluation of these collaborative and partnership approaches. The Engage for Equity: Advancing Community Engaged Partnerships (E2) project, for example, has advanced a science of CBPR (Wallerstein et al., 2020), providing a conceptual foundation and model for linking partnership contexts and dynamics to intermediate and long-term health equity outcomes (Kastelic et al 2018;Wallerstein et al., 2008). Developed empirically from two large surveys of research partnerships and community consultations (Belone et al., 2016), their conceptual CBPR model identifies a range of factors including communities' and universities' capacity and readiness, historical context of collaboration, formal agreements, and congruence of partners' core values that may predict positive system and capacity outcomes. This framework provides a strong, unifying foundation for the growing field of CEnR, capturing much of what has been learned about effective partnerships in the last few decades.Surveying this special section (Wallerstein, 2021), the recent special issue on CBPR approaches to health equity (Suarez-Balcazar, et al., 2020) and the broader landscape of CEnR literature, however, we are struck by the breadth of collaborative structures, partner roles, group processes, research methodologies, and types of actions being employed in these projects. While rooted in the values that are often considered fundamental to CEnR (challenging dominant assumptions about who holds and creates knowledge; Wallerstein & Duran, 2018; involving actions that benefit all partners; Israel et al., 1998), these projects are otherwise remarkably diverse in their strategies. We question, therefore, whether unifying language and frameworks will continue to support this growing discourse.Over time, various terms have emerged to describe certain CEnR approaches. Some, such as Youth Participatory Action Research (YPAR), have provided a platform for researchers to discuss the specific assumptions, strategies, and challenges of engaging youth in research. Others, such as CBPR and CEnR, are w...

“…As dietary and health disparities continue to persist in the United States (US), community-based participatory research (CBPR) approaches have increasingly received attention as a potentially effective way to leverage research to improve health in low-income marginalized communities [ 1 , 2 , 3 ]. Approaching research from a CBPR lens, members from academia partner with community entities to engage in co-learning in order to better identify and address community priorities and needs [ 4 , 5 ].…”

Descriptions of the implementation of community-based participatory mixed-methods research (CBPMMR) in all phases of the engagement approach are limited. This manuscript describes the explicit integration of mixed-methods in four stages of CBPR: (1) connecting and diagnosing, (2) prescribing-implementing, (3) evaluating, and (4) disseminating and refining an intervention that aimed to motivate Latino parents (predominantly Central American in the US) of infants and toddlers to replace sugary drinks with filtered tap water. CBPMMR allowed for co-learning that led to the identification of preliminary behavioral outcomes, insights into potential mechanisms of behavior change, and revisions to the intervention design, implementation and evaluation.
