Session Submission Summary

Community Engaged Research on Crime and Justice

Thu, Nov 13, 9:30 to 10:50am, Judiciary Square - M3

Session Submission Type: Complete Thematic Panel

Abstract/Description

Community-engaged research (CER) provides a framework for developing mutually beneficial partnerships between researchers and relevant communities that advance the goals of both parties. When fully implemented, CER can improve science and lay the foundation for activism and policy change. In this session, we present five unique projects that use CER methodologies to achieve these ends. The range of projects to be discussed will offer a primer on CER, facilitate a deeper understanding of the strengths and the challenges of conducting CER on crime and justice in various settings, and offer insight into directions for future research.
