涉及社区-学术界伙伴关系的干预措施必须以参与性办法为动力,这种办法要以全面了解社区或重点人群的观点为依据。学术界的研究议程往往与社区成员的优先需求不同。通过所有合作者之间的初步公开对话,使成功和可持续的干预措施成为可能,以便明确界定作用并解决关切问题。本文介绍了社区和学术合作伙伴定义的健康和社会问题的参与性评估的发展中使用的方法,目前的研究结果和经验教训。该评估是坦帕湾社区癌症网络(TBCCN)的一项初步活动,旨在指导2010年的网络方向。TBCCN是全国25个通过可持续的社区参与式研究,外展和筛查活动解决癌症差异的项目之一。
Interventions involving community–academic partnerships must be driven by a participatory approach that is informed by a comprehensive understanding of the perspectives of communities or focus populations. Often research agendas of academics are different from perceived priority needs of community members. Successful and sustainable interventions are made possible with initial open dialogue among all collaborators so that roles are clearly defined and concerns are addressed. This article describes approaches used in the development of a participatory assessment of health and social issues as defined by community and academic partners, current findings, and lessons learned. The assessment is one initial activity of the Tampa Bay Community Cancer Network (TBCCN) to guide network directions through 2010. The TBCCN is one of 25 programs nationwide addressing cancer disparities through sustainable community-based participatory research, outreach, and screening activities.
