This collection is an unmatched source of information on the theory and practice of using CBR in a variety of university- and community-based educational settings.

Community-Based Research, or CBR, is a mix of innovative, participatory approaches that put the community at the heart of the research process. Learning and Teaching Community-Based Research shows that CBR can also operate as an innovative pedagogical practice, engaging community members, research experts, and students.
