Community Engaged Research Guide

The Community Engaged Research Guide is a video series designed to enhance the knowledge of community engagement in research, serving as a comprehensive resource for effectively building and sustaining partnerships within the community, focusing on addressing the cancer burden and inequities within UVA’s catchment area. Narrated by the OCOE team and adapted from the University of Michigan, the series typically takes one hour to complete.

The Neighborhood Walks series offers virtual trips to select UVA catchment areas, providing valuable information about each area’s unique culture, diverse landscapes, and the challenges communities face. Additionally, the series sheds light on the overall impact of health disparities from the perspective of community stakeholders. While participation in this series is optional and not a requirement for certain Cancer Center pilot funds, it may be of interest and relevance to the community you’re engaging with. Narrated by the OCOE team and developed in collaboration with Emory and Henry University and key regional partners, each of these videos is typically under 10 minutes in length.
