Strategies to Facilitate Equitable Resource Sharing in Community-Engaged Research
Background:
Community subcontracts are an essential component of community-engaged research, particularly community-based participatory research (CBPR). However, several barriers have limited community-based organizations' (CBOs) ability to serve as subcontractors on research grants. This article describes the barriers and strategies to implementing community subcontracts through a case study of the implementation of one federal grant.
Lessons Learned:
Specific lessons learned at the CBO level, budget-creation level, and university-level are described to overcome barriers in executing community subcontracts in community-engaged research.
Conclusions:
We call for institutional changes to facilitate equitable resource sharing in community-engaged research.
