Abstract
This presentation will highlight how the principles and practices of community based participatory research can be used to enhance chemical exposure research, disaster preparedness, and community resilience. The speaker will illustrate the practical advantages of approaching fugitive chemical exposure research by building upon and supporting existing grassroots resiliency efforts among frontline communities. This will include methods of employing both formal data and community-driven data to address local concerns around fugitive chemical exposure. Examples will be given of how to empower communities in such research efforts, produce actionable research, and devise a research framework that serves both existing research gaps and locally-driven resiliency agendas. The speaker will highlight how such efforts are currently being used in a vulnerable industrial waterfront community in Brooklyn, New York and used to strengthen and advance several community-based resiliency efforts. This will demonstrate how fugitive chemical exposure research can be customized to reflect specific community needs while contributing and informing broader research and policy frameworks at the same time.
