The Prairie Community-Based HIV/AIDS Research Program generates new opportunities in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. We work to:
Support your organization in undertaking HIV/AIDS research to achieve your policy, program and service delivery goals.
Strengthen your skills to undertake and produce HIV/AIDS community-based research. Research that is relevant, respectful and methodologically sound.
Facilitate collaboration between organizations, researchers and affected communities in HIV/AIDS community-based research.
We support Saskatchewan and Manitoba HIV/AIDS community organizations in all aspects of research at no cost:
- Funding
- Design
- Implementation
- Dissemination of findings
- Evidence-based integration of findings into programming and policy
This includes emphasis on involving community members as active collaborators in the research process.
