在发展中国家，尤其是在国际卫生研究中，社区参与日益受到促进，但发表的经验很少。Shoklo疟疾研究组(SMRU)对泰缅边境的难民、移民工人、流离失所者和日间移民进行研究，最近还协助建立了德省边境社区道德咨询委员会(T-CAB)。从与T-CAB的协商中，特别是在参与者招募和知情同意程序方面，吸取了宝贵的经验教训。在与T-CAB进行磋商后，出现了许多新的研究问题。本文描述了我们从T-CAB最初的概念到目前为止的经验、教训和面临的独特挑战。我们的结论是，与T-CAB的磋商已经改善了我们的研究，特别是我们研究的操作和伦理方面。(C)2010年皇家热带医学和卫生学会。爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Community engagement is increasingly promoted in developing countries, especially in international health research, but there is little published experience. The Shoklo Malaria Research Unit (SMRU) conducts research with refugees, migrant workers, displaced people, and day migrants on the Thai-Burmese border, and has recently facilitated the set up of the Tak Province Border Community Ethics Advisory Board (T-CAB). Valuable lessons have been learnt from consultation with the T-CAB especially in the area of participant recruitment and the informed consent process. A lot of new research questions have emerged from consultation with the T-CAB. This paper describes our experience, lessons learnt and the unique challenges faced working with the T-CAB from its initial conception to date. We conclude that consultation with the T-CAB has made improvements in our research in particular operational and ethical aspects of our studies.
