Project
Engaging Black Communities in Patient Engagement in Chronic Pain Research
Reconceptualizing engagement through a health equity and social justice lens to co-create culturally responsive frameworks that amplifies the voices of Black Canadians living with pain

Existing models of engagement often neglect to consider the structural, cultural, and historical contexts that shape Black Canadians’ participation in research. Guided by a community-based participatory research methodology, this project seeks to reconceptualize engagement through a health equity and social justice lens, recognizing that traditional approaches often reinforces the very inequities they aim to address. Our primary aim is to co-create a sustainable and culturally grounded community partnership framework that amplifies the voices of Black Canadians living with pain.
