ANTH 3160 - Community-Based Research

5 credit hours
Community-based research (CBR) is a collection of research methods that is focused on social justice and social change. This field-based course presents an overview of CBR weaving together three key threads. First, an exploration of the historical and theoretical underpinnings of research with communities. Second, key aspects of CBR practice such as ethics, working with diverse populations, program planning, and program evaluation. Third, the methodological skills CBR practitioners use to collect and analyze data in their work.
