Community-Engaged Research from Principles to Practice 2: Understanding Cultural & Population Variation in Research

Every researcher carries assumptions about culture and community, shaped by their own background and training.

Those assumptions influence who gets consulted, whose knowledge is taken seriously, and what counts as a successful partnership. 

Join the Centre for Research & Innovation Support for Session 2 of Community-Engaged Research from Principles to Practice, a six-session virtual series that explores practical, evidence-based approaches to building effective research partnerships with communities. 

This session builds understanding of how culture, bias, and structural difference shape community engagement, and how researchers can respond thoughtfully and effectively. 

This session can be completed as a standalone workshop, though we encourage participants to complete the full series for a comprehensive foundation in community-engaged research in order to receive the Certificate of Series Completion.
