We are trying to get hold of a paper published in 1998 in something
called 'Health 2000 Inc'.   The full reference we have is:  Kreuter, M.
Lezin, N. Are consortia/collaboratives effective in changing health
status and health systems?  A critical review of the literature.
Atlanta, Health 2000 Inc. January 9th, 1998.   Does anybody have any
idea where we might look to find this - normal web based searches are
returning nothing.  Jennie Popay

Subject: [SDOH] Participatory research: policy approaches


We recently completed a paper that suggests that community-based
participatory research that does not take an explicit public policy
approach that addresses broader determinants of health can deteriorate
into an exercise in futility.  The full paper is available: Please

Summary
An urban health research agenda for health promoters is presented. In
Canada, urban issues are emerging as a major concern of policy makers.
The voices raising these issues are from the non-health sectors, but
many of these issues such as increasing income inequality and poverty,
homelessness and housing insecurity, and social exclusion of youth,
immigrants, and ethno-racial minorities have strong health implications
as they are important social determinants of health.  Emphasis on these
and other social determinants of health and the policy decisions that
strengthen or weaken them is timely as the quality of Canadian urban
environments has become especially problematic. We argue for a
participatory urban health research and action agenda with four
components: a) an emphasis on health promotion and the social
determinants of health; b) community-based participatory research; and
c) drawing on the lived experience of people to influence d) policy
analysis and policy change.  Urban health researchers and promoters are
urged to draw upon new developments in population health and
community-based health promotion theory and research to identify and
strengthen the roots of urban health through citizen action on public
policy
