Key Takeaways: - Fundamental Principles of Community Engagement: Gained a solid understanding of how to effectively identify and prioritize stakeholders in health research projects. - Practical Strategies: Learned practical strategies for engaging communities in health research and decision-making processes. - Communication and Collaboration Skills: Acquired crucial skills for successful community engagement. - Ethical AI Practices: Delved into ethical AI practices, ensuring that AI applications in health research are conducted fairly and respectfully. - Building Meaningful Partnerships: Explored techniques for establishing and maintaining partnerships with community stakeholders and organizations.
