I would add - and perhaps this has been said already - that CBPR has gained
particular popularity since neo-liberal governments have made
'evidence-based practice' one of their mantras.
For those of you interested in CBPR, there is a listserv run jointly by
Community-Campus Partnerships for Health in Seattle and Wellesley Central
Health Corporation here in Toronto. Sign up at

Subject: Re: [SDOH] community-based? further thoughts
"I also wonder whether [CBPR] is not another wave in the appropriation of
community-based knowledge. After all isn't appropriation one of the ways
universities have accumulated knowledge historically and then made claims to
the ownership of that knowledge?"
Well said, Linda.
The usurpation by academe of community-based, community-lead research is a
common experience for community groups. In cases where this doesn't happen,
one often finds the research having been redefined as a 'project' or
'initiative'. Research makes a permanent contribution to our knowledge base;
projects have a best-before date.
Not just academics are qualified to do or lead research. In some cases, they
are LESS qualified.
