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conducting a literature review looking for published and unpublished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

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.
