A colleague asked me the following:

Is there any consensus about what constitutes Community-Based Research?

What do you think Community-Based Research is and what are its critical,
fundamental elements?

Since this should be of interest to all of us, send your responses to the
list-serve and I'll forward it on to my colleague.

Thanks!

   Canalising a river
   Grafting a fruit tree
   Educating a person
   Transforming a state
   These are instances of fruitful criticism
   And at the same time instances of art.
