Description:
research process – as clients, policy shapers and as researchers?
There are many examples and much practical thinking on community engagement in
research in the development context. This includes activities such as participatory research
methods for rural development programmes, or environmental, social and educational
projects. It is curious, in contrast, to note the dearth of substantive literature and thinking
on how communities can influence national health research agendas and national health
research policies in developing countries.
