Effectively addressing “wicked” social problems requires active stakeholder engagement in the design, implementation, and evaluation of intervention and prevention strategies. The participants in this session explore “authentic alliances” from diverse perspectives. Dr. Orellana will discuss the importance of epistemic alliances. Dr. Duran will present a community/academic partnership study that identified contextual and partnership practices associated with successful community-based participatory research outcomes. Dr. Evans- Campbell will discuss intersectionality and indigeneity in research partnerships. Dr. Wheeler will address the enduring question of the true benefit of research in service to non-White and marginalized groups in the United States. Participants are also welcome to discuss their own experiences with building alliances to tackle contemporary Grand Challenges.
