Title: Using Community-Based Participatory Research to Address Indigenous Health
Abstract: This chapter introduces the concepts of participatory action research and community-based participatory research (CBPR) and reviews nine CBPR principles recommended when engaging American Indian, Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander communities in research. Messengers for Health, a long-running CBPR study among the Apsáalooke (Crow) Nation in Montana, is described in detail to illustrate the nine CBPR principles. Four other successful CBPR projects are described in less detail, including the 2017 Santa Fe Indian Center Health Impact Assessment, Guardians of the Living Water (a project to improve water quality in tribal areas of Montana), the MALAMA Aquaponics Study with Native Hawaiian Families, and the Children's Healthy Living Project for Remote Underserved Populations in the Pacific Region.
