都柏林三一学院全球健康中心的目标之一是加强发展中国家的卫生系统。为了实现这一目标，我们在 40 多个国家与第三级民间社会、政府、私营部门和联合国合作伙伴开展合作。其中每一个都需要建立不同的关系。良好的原则必须指导所有全球卫生研究伙伴关系。与全球健康中心的研究伙伴和工作人员一起开展了一项探索性研究项目。目的是建立一个基于证据的框架。使用扎根理论方法分三个连续阶段进行归纳探索性研究过程： 第一阶段：通过电子邮件向所有确定的合作伙伴发送开放式调查问卷。第二阶段：与全球健康中心的工作人员举行了一系列协商会议。第三阶段：第一阶段和第二阶段的数据集被应用于统一框架的开发。使用扎根理论三阶段主题分析（开放式、轴向式和选择性编码）对数据进行分析。伙伴关系的关系和运营方面被强调为与每个伙伴关系相关。出现了七个同样重要的核心概念（焦点、价值观、公平、利益、领导力、沟通和解决方案），并在此进行描述和讨论。其中，有两种（领导力和决心）在现有的伙伴关系文献中很少被考虑。如果各方事先就共同的最低限度计划达成一致，从设计阶段就参与其中，并有足够的专门分配资源，大型复杂的合作伙伴关系就可以运作良好。根据这项研究，制定并共享了合作伙伴关系框架。本文的在线版本 (doi:10.1186/s12992-016-0152-1) 包含补充材料，可供授权用户使用。
The Centre for Global Health, Trinity College Dublin has as one of its goals, strengthening health systems in developing countries. In realising this goal we work across more than 40 countries with third-level, civil society, government, private sector and UN partners. Each of these requires that different relationships be established. Good principles must guide all global health research partnerships. An exploratory research project was undertaken with research partners of, and staff within, the Centre for Global Health. The aim was to build an evidence-based framework. An inductive exploratory research process was undertaken using a grounded theory approach in three consecutive phases: Phase I: An open-ended questionnaire was sent via email to all identified partners. Phase II: A series of consultative meetings were held with the staff of the Centre for Global Health. Phase III: Data sets from Phases I and II were applied to the development of a unifying framework. Data was analysed using grounded theory three stage thematic analysis - open, axial and selective coding. Relational and operational aspects of partnership were highlighted as being relevant across every partnership. Seven equally important core concepts emerged (focus, values, equity, benefit, leadership, communication and resolution), and are described and discussed here. Of these, two (leadership and resolution) are less often considered in existing literature on partnerships. Large complex partnerships can work well if all parties are agreed in advance to a common minimum programme, have been involved from the design stage, and have adequate resources specifically allocated. Based on this research, a framework for partnerships has been developed and is shared.
