Community-Based Research Summer Institute:
Addressing Societal Issues Through Community-Based Approaches to Research
Training for emerging researchers interested in conducting applied research with community partners
The Community-Based Research Summer Institute is an interactive five-day virtual training opportunity for emerging researchers to build capacity in conducting applied research with community partners. Gain knowledge in community-based research theory and apply your learning hands-on to your own current or potential community-based research along with peers in a collaborative and energetic learning environment.
This training is primarily intended for students from CBRCanada member organizations, including upper-level undergraduates, graduate (Masters or PhD) students, postdoctoral fellows, or recent graduates (within 2 years). Other researchers, such as new or early-career faculty or staff, who are interested in engaging community partners in collaborative, action-oriented research that addresses societal issues, are also welcome to participate on a case-by-case basis.
