Abstract:
This primer offers strategies to navigate power dynamics in community-based participatory research (CBPR) projects. Drawing on real-world examples and current literature, it acknowledges how power differentials appear in CBPR projects. The primer then presents specific strategies for partners when addressing injustices that can arise when power is not addressed or considered in research projects and relationships. The utility of the primer is a set of examples of how these strategies have appeared in real research projects. This primer serves as a roadmap for researchers and community members that reflects current best practices at the time of publishing.
