description The Duke Clinical and Translational Science Institute Community Engaged Research Initiative began its Population Health Improvement Awards grant program in 2017. This program builds community-engaged research capacity by promoting the formation of community-academic research teams, educating researchers about equitable partnerships, and empowering community members and organizations to access academic research resources. With a focus on community-identified priorities, the program purposefully engages local communities in an enterprise that has traditionally labeled community members as “participants” rather than “partners.” Key elements of the program include innovation, relationship building, and power sharing; education and research system navigation; iterative adaptation using the Plan-Do-Study-Act framework; and continual program improvements based on applicant feedback to ensure that the program becomes a national leader in funding local community-engaged research partnerships.
