About this session

Plenary 4.

Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM) holds to an applied, cross –cutting, definition of community engagement research that includes the systematic allocation of educational, clinical, research and clinical resources applied to advance its vision to lead the creation and advancement of health equity. The MSM Model, steeped the pursuit of trustworthiness and positioning community/patient groups as leaders, rather than simply holding roles in supporting recruitment and retention and ongoing, systematic assessment (priority community/patient groups, partnerships dynamics, and research impacts/outcomes), has been the foundation to these relationships and outcomes. Beyond the conduct of Community-based Participatory Research and Community-Engaged Research are essential institutional systems and structures that facilitate or serve as barriers to community engaged research practices. This workshop will cover the multilevel (individual, relational and institutional) determinants of effective community engaged research trustworthiness. This session will discuss values, practices, and tools that academic institutions can employ to integrate and facilitate community-driven research as an institutional pillar of their research enterprise.
