Posted by Community-Campus Partnerships for Health (CCPH) on August 6, 2024

This webinar was a Book Launch for the 2nd edition of Race and Research: Perspectives on Minority Participation in Health Studies. Senior editors Dr. Elizabeth Heitman and Dr. Bettina Beech and selected authors discussed the relevance of this volume and significant shifts in thinking, cultural awareness, and policy in the 20 years since it was first published. Authors Dr. Ebiere Okah and Dr. Simon Lee presented community engagement sections from the volume, followed by a moderated discussion.

Attendees engaged in discussions about supporting community-engaged research in their institutions and gained practical examples and experiences on where and how to start building community partnerships. 

This session disseminated relevant information about racism in society, social justice, and community engagement’s work to make changes on an institutional and local level.
