Introducing Wellesley Central’s latest community-based research workshop....
CBR 301 Delivering on the Promise: Building Community
and Affecting Policy through Community-Based Research
Tired of seeing your research reports sitting on a shelf? A fundamental
principle of community-based research is ensuring that action outcomes
emerge as a result of research. The ‘gold standard’ outcome for CBR
projects is to affect public policy.
So, how do I go from research to affecting public policy.....
Participants Will Learn:
• how CBR research can be used for social change
• how CBR can be articulated to maximize impact on policy makers
• a framework for maximizing action outcomes from CBR
• skills for using research as an advocacy tool
Who Should Attend:
• funders of community-based research
• community members, researchers, practitioners and others involved in
community-based research
• those involved in capacity-building and community development
• policy makers
