Request for Articles and Resources to Inform a Literature Review:
Needs Assessment and Feasibility Study for Community-Based Research

About the Research:
There is a growing interest in the area of community based research  
(CBR)* both in and beyond academia.  While academics are required by  
their institutions and funders to submit their research proposals to a  
rigorous ethics review process, those outside of academia have no  
ethics review requirements except as required by certain funders.   
Furthermore, research in Canada is increasingly being conducted  
outside of academia.   More and more of community based research is  
being conducted by independent researchers, private consulting firms,  
government departments and non governmental organizations.  CBR covers  
a range of research typologies including, needs assessments, program  
evaluations, policy research, and other forms of applied research.

Purpose of Research:
The Wellesley Institute and the Centre for Community-Based Research in  
Waterloo are collaborating to explore and clarify the need for a  
community based research ethics process in Waterloo Region, Toronto  
and beyond, by identifying and understanding issues and concerns from  
multiple stakeholder perspectives (peer researchers, community  
agencies (NGO?s), academics, community institutions, government and  
funders) and then to determine an appropriate and feasible response  
that will facilitate ethically sound community based research.

About the Request:
As part of the needs assessment and feasibility study we are  
conducting a literature review looking for published and unpublished  
articles and resources that address and explore the issues of ethics,  
research ethics board and community based research.

If you have an article or resource that we should be aware of as part  
of this literature review for please email Tekla Hendrickson at  
[log in to unmask]

Please email your articles and resources by June 26th at the latest.  
Thank you in advance for everyone?s assistance.

*************************
*The Steering Committee will define CBR as research that strives to be:

Community situated ? begins with research topics of practical  
relevance to the community (as opposed to individual scholars) and is  
carried out in community settings.

Collaborative ? community members and researchers equitably share  
control of the research agenda through active and reciprocal  
involvement in the research design, implementation and dissemination.

Action-oriented ? the process and results are useful to community  
members in making positive social change and to promote social equity.
