I Introduction

Partnerships are essential to health promotion practice. So too is the
application of valid research findings. Thus the idea of partnering with
our communities to do research appeals to most health promotion
practitioners.

Two weeks ago, Toronto's Wellesley Institute co-hosted the 10th
anniversary conference of Campus-Community Partnerships for Health,
"Mobilizing Partnerships for Social Change." With more than 650 people
attending from across the United States, Canada, and 12 other countries,
the Toronto conference proved to be the largest CCPH conference ever.
