Suboptimal prevention and treatment uptake has led to the implementation of community-based and/or participatory research integrating 'empowerment' approaches in an effort to reach marginalized groups in high-income countries. Here we present results of a cross-national examination of how national contexts influence implementation of empowerment-based HIV prevention research projects in the United States (US) and France. ETOILE was a qualitative, self-reflective study collaboration conducted between 2019 and 2022. Three study teams (two from the US and one from France) engaged in self-reflective focus groups and intervisitations where both HIV prevention scientists and community-based organization partners discussed the following topics: HIV and community-based research landscapes, the notion of empowerment in traditional research contexts, within-project tensions around hierarchies/power, positionality and racial representation, and economic resources. We applied a grounded analytic approach to identify key emergent themes. The ability to communicate around structural racism differed across study teams; the French team had greater difficulty managing within-project tensions, reflecting the national context and history of community-based research. Whether and how epidemiological data is broken down (or not) by 'race,' ethnicity, and social class shape both research and popular understandings of HIV epidemics. The roles of community-based organization members and Black researchers in accessing communities and vouching for research is particularly challenging. Representation of Black researchers on study teams can critically influence research project implementation. We found that national contexts matter. We identified recommendations for conducting community-based research based on empowerment and participatory approaches in disempowering contexts.</p>","PeriodicalId":46805,"journal":{"name":"Global Health Promotion","volume":" ","pages":"17579759251379463"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145935400","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We conducted a qualitative study using Photovoice with 15 women aged 18-24 years across three urban sites within Kampala, Uganda. To capture perceptions of strengths, we prompted participants to take photos reflecting 'TOPOWA', meaning 'don't give up' in Luganda.

This article presents an agile approach to conducting HIA when the window of opportunity is short, resources are scarce, and the expected value of appraisal is uncertain. Accordingly, this approach prioritizes the recommendations step over the appraisal step, while proposing an iterative and co-constructive process involving a limited number of stakeholders. The approach is exemplified through a case study of an HIA conducted in Québec on a guide promoting green, active and safe transportation networks. We argue that the adapted method can, in certain circumstances, lead to better results than a typical HIA.

There was a high level of consensus concerning the proposed changes among respondents, based on which a revised version of the Competency Framework was produced.

Rather than being merely an awareness-raising tool, the Charter promotes health education as a means of emancipation and of acting on living conditions, notably enabling the fight against cancers. This article provides a critical analysis of developments in health promotion research in schools. First, it identifies the initial challenge of moving beyond isolated interventions towards comprehensive, integrated and participatory approaches. It then explores the obstacles and incentives associated with the transferability of interventions and the development of implementation science. The third axis calls for the research field to be structured, with clear objectives, shared indicators and greater consideration given to practical knowledge. Finally, it stresses the need to place the reduction of social inequalities in health at the heart of interventions, adopting methodologies that are sensitive to the differentiated effects according to social contexts. In conclusion, research into health promotion in school settings must evolve towards a transdisciplinary systemic approach that is grounded in practice.
