This is a MAP Centre for Urban Health Solutions Evaluation Series Workshop facilitated by Dr. Francisco Ibanez-Carrasco (DLSPH).

In social behavioural sciences, where community-based research (CBR) is best tolerated and implemented in disparate ways, there exists a role of predicting what will happen in the future. Kiser (1995) tells us that the two things “required for successful prediction [are] general theoretical models of the relevant causal processes and detailed empirical knowledge of initial conditions.” Using a predictive-via-observation and reflection role of social sciences as a springboard, in this workshop, I invite participants to reflect on what has been done in, and to, community-based research in Canada using HIV research as a preferred example. I will describe the ways in which online research methods will impact the implementation of CBR.
