KIFA: Community Research Engagement Meetings
Community research engagement meetings according to Kole Intellectual Forum are processes they used to involve community members in the research process, ensuring those research are relevant, ethical, and beneficial to the community. These meetings facilitate two-way communication, allowing KIFA team (researchers) to share information about their study, address concerns, and gather community perspectives on research priorities, design, and implementation. This collaborative approach according to the researchers aims to build trust, increase participation, and ultimately enhance the impact and sustainability of research outcomes.
Purposely, the meetings provide a platform to explain the research, its objectives, and potential benefits and risks to the community; allow researchers to understand community priorities, address concerns, and ensure the research aligns with community needs; and provide an open communication and collaboration foster trust between researchers and community members.
