TL;DR: Evaluated the use of Photovoice, a CBPR method that uses participant-employed photography and dialogue to create social change, which was employed in a research partnership with a First Nation in Western Canada and revealed that photovoice effectively balanced power, created a sense of ownership, fostered trust, built capacity, and responded to cultural preferences.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report the findings of an exploratory qualitative case study involving semi-structured, open-ended interviews with Canadian university-based geographers and social scientists in related disciplines who engage in CBPR to explore the relationship between their conceptual understanding of CBPR and their applied research.

TL;DR: The authors empirically explored whether academics from pure/soft and pure/hard fields engage in reflective practice on teaching differently and, if so, whether these differences could be partially explained by the epistemological structure of their discipline.

TL;DR: Thematic analysis resulted in four key ideas: current practices regarding methods of acknowledging community contributions; requirements for shared authorship with individual versus collective/community partners; benefits to sharing authorship in the scholarly dissemination of their community-based participatory Indigenous research; and risks to sharing authorhip with collective/ community partners.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the addition of qualitative data about water and wastewater systems users' behaviours to technical knowledge of systems and operations can enhance the understanding of human-water interactions and be valuable in risk assessments and intervention development.
