Abstract
This chapter documents the experiences of a community-based participatory research team working collaboratively in five Pacific Islander communities in Southern California with a focus on cancer-related public health challenges. It explores the multiple dimensions of peer identity in collaborative research, showing how tensions between principles of equity and scientific rigour manifest themselves in the implementation of community-based participatory research, including in community-based organisations, and assumptions about peer insider and established outsider roles in research. The chapter challenges dominant assumptions about how community-based participatory research is practised and offers a productive critique of this approach to peer research.
