Welcome to the PCHR website!
CIHR/MSFHR Strategic Training Program Grant in Partnering in Community Health Research (PCHR)
PCHR is structured to act like a powerful magnet that attracts exceptional mentors and learners from across Canada and internationally to generate solutions to immediate problems in the health sector.

PCHR's most unique and innovative feature is the creation of community-based learning environments. This approach means shared learning across diverse university and community target groups through problem-based teamwork on actual community research priorities.

The three target learner groups are graduate students from multiple disciplines and programs, transdisciplinary postdoctoral fellows, and community program managers/learners/policy makers.

PCHR is designed to increase collaboration between community health workers/professionals and university researchers. Our goal is to foster interdisciplinary community health research and evidence-based health policies and practices.

PCHR is aimed at:

* fostering research targeted at urgent local community health needs;
* strengthening the linkage between research and policy/practice; and
* promoting interdisciplinary health research.
