虽然社区参与越来越多地促进全球健康研究，以改善伦理研究的做法，有时有一个更广泛的道德抱负，一方面，在文献和指导方针，其在健康研究中的实际应用，而狭窄之间的脱节。在实践中，很少注意让社区参与研究设计，以体现尊重和确保社区伙伴包容性参与的“内在”价值。相反，更多的关注是使用社区参与的“工具”的目的，以提高社区对研究的理解，并确保成功的研究实施。在此背景下，我们回顾了文献，并在研讨会上参与了各种研究利益相关者，讨论如何加强社区的道德参与，并制定与马拉维社区参与健康研究相关的指导方针。
Although community engagement is increasingly promoted in global health research to improve ethical research practice, there is sometimes a disconnect between the broader moral ambitions for community engagement in the literature and guidelines on the one hand and its rather narrower practical application in health research on the other. In practice, less attention is paid to engaging communities for the 'intrinsic' value of showing respect and ensuring inclusive participation of community partners in research design. Rather, more attention is paid to the use of community engagement for 'instrumental' purposes to improve community understanding of research and ensure successful study implementation. Against this backdrop, we reviewed the literature and engaged various research stakeholders at a workshop to discuss ways of strengthening ethical engagement of communities and to develop context-relevant guidelines for community engagement in health research in Malawi.
