a strategic plan for clinic use in the region.A medical team composed of staff from a district hospital was the first to take the clinic into thefield (along with the institute team). The team included a clinical laboratory scientist, midwife,two community nurses, three nurses for vitals and shots, two pharmacists, an insurance agent,and driver. The hospital’s doctor led and organized this team. He was also the one to develop themost effective strategy for seeing patients in periphery villages. For five days, the leadershipinstitute team worked with the medical team to observe how the clinic was being used and togather ideas for improvement. Each morning, the van was stocked with supplies for the day,which included medication, malaria rapid

engagement in the design of research that responds directlyto the community's needs17. CBPR shifts the concept of research from “one in which thecommunity is a ‘laboratory’ for investigation" (p. 5)11 to one in which "research is by and with acommunity rather than simply for or about a community" (p. 23)17. This methodology expandsscientific inquiry to include goals for empowering and building community capacity by utilizinglocal knowledge to promote research solutions from the participants most affected by potentialactions generated within the research17. CBPR is an iterative process in which academicresearchers and community partners develop research projects through collaboration, collectingand analyzing data while making iterative refinements to
