Item Indigenous people and perspectives in Latin American(Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA) and Unversity of Victoria, 2016) Haffenden, Johanna AndreaThe review examines CBR in Latin America regarding indigenous people and indigenous perspectives around the core themes of democracy, water governance and sustainability.

(2) What are the practical challenges of creating university-community research and training partnerships aimed at developing research skills and capacities that will help address the UN SDGs through participatory approaches to knowledge creation? We answer these questions by analysing the Knowledge for Change (K4C) Consortium on training community-based participatory research. We present lessons and challenges associated to the development of K4C and provide recommendations to help create effective community-university research partnerships that contribute to the attainment of the UN 2030 Agenda.Item The knowledge for change global consortium(Participatory Research in Asia (PRIA), 2021-11-04) Kaul, Niharika
