Self-harm, violence and road accidents, the leading causes of mortality in Guyana, engender preventable, yet sustained public health crises. Guyana’s trauma/injury mortality burden is the highest in South America, with its suicide rate (80% pesticide ingestion) the third highest in the world. Fortunately, the Guyanese leadership, both academic and governmental, have demonstrated a strong public health commitment to addressing these problems. Unfortunately, however, the country does not currently have research capacity in trauma/injury prevention on which to build evidence-based, context-specific prevention strategies. We propose, therefore, a cross-national, cross-institutional collaboration, to transition their current capacity in trauma/injury research, by jointly creating the Guyana Research in Injury and Trauma Training (GRITT) Program, a Sister Program of the Columbia (University) Center for Injury Science and Prevention (CCISP). GRITT will provide in-depth training in research design and methods, combined with jointly mentoring trainees through intensive, hands-on research projects and by facilitating entry into advanced degree programs (Masters or Ph.D.). GRITT will be built on collaboration between the Columbia University and Guyana’s Ministry of Health ongoing NIMH funded longitudinal epidemiological national study of suicide. The primary institutions devoted to establishing and sustaining GRITT are the University of Guyana, Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation, and Columbia’s Mailman School of Public Health Dept. of Epidemiology. In a transparent, competitive process designed to ensure under-represented participation, GRITT will train along four pathways, allowing for variations in discipline, levels of expertise, professional roles and geared toward pursuit of a Masters or PhD in the area of trauma/injury research. The four research training pathways are: (1) Health Professionals in the Accident and Emergency Department and the Guyana Emergency Medical Services will receive individual mentoring and participate in collaborative on-the-job research projects designed to enhance careers as researchers in trauma/injury prevention; (2) Medical Residents will be offered training in research methods and group/individual mentoring focused on trauma/injury; (3) Masters students (Public Health, Nursing, Social Work, Psychology, Education, Pharmacy) will be offered research-focused virtual courses, intensive summer training, and a jointly mentored research practicum/project on a trauma/injury topic, geared to pursuit of a research career, including a Ph.D., and; (4) Health care Post-Bacs, participating in a Columbia University Certificate program will receive on-line training in research methods and will be supported for a Masters degree focused on injury/trauma prevention. Also, in the first six-months and then on a regular basis, GRITT faculty, staff and local Mentors will participate in workshops focused on research methods, including identification of projects for faculty/students, e.g., self-harm, interpersonal violence, road accidents. Workshops will also include effective mentoring techniques and establish interactive learning approaches for the shared virtual monthly trauma/injury Seminar Series at CCSIP.

自我伤害，暴力和道路事故，是圭亚那死亡率的主要原因，可预防，但 持续的公共卫生危机。圭亚那的创伤/伤害死亡率伯恩伯恩是南美最高的 自杀率（80％的农药摄入）是世界第三高的。幸运的是，圭亚那的领导 学术和政府学都表现出了强有力的公共卫生承诺 问题。但是，不幸的是，该国目前没有创伤/伤害的研究能力 预防建立基于证据的，特定于上下文的预防策略。因此，我们建议 跨国，跨机构合作，通过 共同创建了圭亚那的伤害和创伤训练（GRITT）计划，该计划是 哥伦比亚（大学）损伤科学与预防中心（CCISP）。格里特将提供深入的培训 研究设计和方法，结合通过密集，动手研究的共同指导培训 通过支持进入高级学位课程的项目（硕士或博士学位）。格里特将建立在 哥伦比亚大学与圭亚那卫生部正在进行的NIMH资助的合作 纵向流行病学国家自杀研究。主要机构致力于建立和 维持格里特的是圭亚那大学，乔治敦公立医院公司和哥伦比亚的 流行病学公共卫生部邮政学院。在一个透明的竞争过程中 确保代表性不足的参与，格里特将沿着四个途径进行训练，从而使纪律变化， 创伤/伤害领域的专业知识，专业角色和旨在追求硕士学位或博士学位的水平 研究。四个研究培训途径是：（1）事故和紧急事故中的卫生专业人员 部门和圭亚那紧急医疗服务将获得个人心理和参与 合作在职研究项目，旨在提高创伤/伤害研究人员的职业 预防; （2）将向医疗居民提供研究方法和小组/个人指导的培训 专注于创伤/伤害； （3）硕士学生（公共卫生，护理，社会工作，心理学，教育， 药房将提供以研究为重点的虚拟课程，密集的夏季培训以及共同重要的 研究实践/针对创伤/伤害主题的项目，旨在追求研究职业，包括博士学位， 和; （4）卫生保健邮政后，参加哥伦比亚大学证书计划将在线接收 研究方法的培训，并将获得针对预防伤害/创伤的硕士学位。 此外，在前六个月，然后定期，格里特教职员工和当地导师将参加 专注于研究方法的研讨会，包括确定教师/学生的项目，例如自我伤害， 人际暴力，道路事故。讲习班还将包括有效的心理技术并建立 CCSIP的共享虚拟每月创伤/伤害研讨会系列的交互式学习方法。
