CBPR involves several stages, each requiring active collaboration between researchers and the community:
1. Identifying the Research Question: The community and researchers collaboratively identify the health issues that are most pressing for the community. 2. Designing the Study: The research design is co-created, ensuring it is culturally appropriate and addresses the community's needs. 3. Data Collection: Community members are often involved in collecting data, which helps to build trust and ensure accurate data. 4. Data Analysis: Researchers and community members work together to interpret the data, ensuring that the findings are relevant and understandable. 5. Dissemination and Action: The results are shared with the community in accessible formats, and actions are planned to address the findings.
