在过去的几十年里，有许多同行评议的文章写的人谁使用毒品（PWUDs）从市中心东区附近的温哥华，加拿大。虽然个别研究人员参与并承认这一人群作为参与者和社区合作伙伴在他们的工作中，有相对较少的关注PWUD和吸毒者组织在指导，影响和塑造研究议程的作用。在这项社区驱动的研究中，我们研究了20年的同行评议研究，大学论文，书籍和报告，这些研究，书籍和报告都是由活动家组织温哥华地区吸毒者网络（VANDU）的成员指导，影响和塑造的。在本文中，我们根据每篇文章的不同主题总结了VANDU的工作。在将纳入标准应用于400多篇文章后，纳入了59项包含同行评审研究，书籍和报告的项目，并确定了研究或讨论的三个主题。主题一：39%的文章涉及边缘化群体的“健康需求”，19%的文章涉及主题2：与减少危害有关的“项目评估”，42%的文章涉及主题3：“行动主义”相关工作。94%的合著者来自不列颠哥伦比亚省，44%的研究是定性的。由VANDU成员共同创作或承认其参与的作品创造了628次引用。此外，他们的作品已被访问超过149，600次。基于同伴的民主减少伤害组织是促进开创性健康和社会研究的重要合作伙伴，并通过研究可以倡导改善残疾人和社区其他边缘化群体的健康和福祉。这篇文章还建议，残疾人应该得到更尊重的参与，并给予适当的信贷，他们的贡献。
Over the past several decades, there have been numerous peer-reviewed articles written about people who use drugs (PWUDs) from the Downtown Eastside neighborhood of Vancouver, Canada. While individual researchers have engaged and acknowledged this population as participants and community partners in their work, there has been comparatively little attention given to the role of PWUDs and drug user organizations in directing, influencing, and shaping research agendas. In this community-driven research, we examine 20 years of peer-reviewed studies, university theses, books, and reports that have been directed, influenced, and shaped by members of the activist organization the Vancouver Area Network of Drug Users (VANDU). In this paper, we have summarized VANDU’s work based on different themes from each article. After applying the inclusion criteria to over 400 articles, 59 items containing peer-reviewed studies, books, and reports were included and three themes of topics researched or discussed were identified. Theme 1: ‘health needs’ of marginalized groups was found in 39% of articles, Theme 2: ‘evaluation of projects’ related to harm reduction in 19%, and Theme 3: ‘activism’ related work in 42%. Ninety-four percent of co-authors were from British Columbia and 44% of research was qualitative. Works that have been co-authored by VANDU’s members or acknowledged their participations created 628 citations. Moreover, their work has been accessed more than 149,600 times. Peer-based, democratic harm reduction organizations are important partners in facilitating groundbreaking health and social research, and through research can advocate for the improved health and wellbeing of PWUDs and other marginalized groups in their community. This article also recommends that PWUDs should be more respectfully engaged and given appropriate credit for their contributions.
