A long-term partnership between an applied researcher and a particular community can result in numerous positive outcomes. One such result is that after years of continual working in one particular area, a mutual trust develops between the community (residents and organizations) and the investigator. In my case, I have been involved with one particular community for over 30 years; the concept of community operative here is quite broad referring to a specific geographic region, the Mississippi Delta. Mutual trust in this case means that not only can I contact a variety of gatekeepers in the affected community, including individual residents, primary care clinic staff, hospital personnel, and local, state, and federal agency representatives, to solicit their input on a particular health-related query, these same individuals and/or organizations can contact me to seek out my active participation in a particular endeavor of their interest. It is the latter approach I would like to illustrate here with a specific example.

A speech-language pathology master's program that grew out of a partnership between the University of Zambia and a U.S.-based charitable organization, Connective Link Among Special needs Programs (CLASP) International, has just been completed in Zambia. The review of this program is outlined according to the suggested principles for community-based partnerships, a framework which may help evaluate cultural relevance and sustainability in long-term volunteer efforts (Israel, Schulz, Parker, & Becker, 1998).

Long Term Studies

To monitor the development of four community-managed forests, networks of permanent sample plots were established in 2005 at sites in Chitwan, Kaski and Mustang Districts, Nepal. This research note documents the procedures used when preparing for establishment of the plot networks, evaluates the applied stratification of the forest on the basis of data gathered in pilot surveys conducted in the early 2005, and provides a discussion on the implications of the choices made. Key words: Community-managed forests; permanent sample plots; stratification; allocation; estimates Banko Janakari Vol.16(2) 2006 pp.3-11
