From the Wellesley Institute

The Wellesley Institute, a Toronto-based non-profit research and policy institute, develops research and community-based policy solutions to the problems of urban health and health disparities. The Institute has developed a series of informative presentations on how to conduct community-based research, including "how-tos" on such topics as conducting literature reviews, interviewing research subjects, developing surveys and analyzing data. The organization has made its materials available to the public free of charge. Research Fanshawe has selected some of the most relevant presentations from the organization's menu of Community-Based Research (CBR) and Capacity Building (CAP) workshops for posting on our website.
