Item Participatory research: Canadian adult educators build a global movement(0000) Hall, Budd L; Jackson, Edward TWhat role did Canadian adult educators play in shaping one of the most significant global research movements of the twentieth century? In this chapter, Dr. Budd Hall and Edward T. Jackson trace the history and evolution of participatory research as a major approach in adult education and community-engaged scholarship. The Participatory Research Group was founded in 1976 at OISE and was the Canadian node of the International Participatory Research Network. The group worked with labor, Indigenous organizations, immigrant associations, women’s groups, and other community-based organizations. It also describes important transformations in institutions, including the creation of international research networks, the expansion of community-university partnerships, and the emergence of programs like the Community-University Research Alliances (CURA) and UNESCO-supported initiatives that promote knowledge democracy. The chapter concludes with an analysis on lessons learned from five decades of practice and a reaffirmation of the ongoing relevance of participatory research for the advancement of equity, democratic participation, and socially responsive forms of education.Item Recognizing excellence in community engaged scholarship at the University of Victoria.

The report is grounded in the principles of engaged scholarship, knowledge mobilization, and participatory research. It challenges traditional views of universities as primary producers of knowledge and highlights the importance of co-created knowledge generated through partnerships with communities and civil society. Through surveys, interviews, workshops, and community dialogues, Hall identifies the structural, cultural, and ethical conditions necessary for effective university–community research partnerships. The report concludes that a dedicated community-based research and knowledge mobilization program can strengthen civic engagement, advance social justice, and support more inclusive approaches to knowledge production in higher education.
