Expectations continue to grow for researchers to demonstrate the real-world value and societal impact of their work. Community-engaged research has become an increasingly important approach for ensuring that evidence is relevant, actionable, and responsive to the needs of the communities it represents. This webinar is designed to introduce attendees to principles of community-engaged research while providing practical guidance for those interested in incorporating this approach into their own work.

In this engaging discussion, researchers with diverse experiences across communities and sectors will explore what led them to community-engaged research, how they foster meaningful engagement throughout the research process, the opportunities and challenges they have encountered, and the lessons learned from building authentic, equitable, and lasting partnerships with communities.
