Episode Synopsis

In our latest episode of “Challenges in Partnered Research,” a Q&A series by Partnering in Research, we aim to learn from researchers who realized their research and implementation goals had grown beyond academia and how they decided a non-profit organization could advance their policy-relevant research and community change initiatives.  

Listen in as Dr. Paul Kershaw and Dr. Elaine Leung  discuss their journeys from academia to founding non-profits, the challenges they faced, and their insights on how universities can support similar initiatives. Whether you are a researcher contemplating a similar path or simply interested in community-engaged research, this episode is packed with valuable insights and advice.
