The Program for Language Equity is partnering with the Multilingual Research Justice Collaborative (MRJC) to create grassroot, community-based services for translating and culturally adapting research materials.
MRJC Goals:
Additional Benefits
Although our primary focus is on translation and cultural adaptation, additional benefits of this collaborative include:
- Improving recruitment
- Improving retention
- Identifying multilingual partners for community-engaged research and patient/family advisory boards
MRJC’s goal is to help all researchers — from clinical and translational researchers to health services researchers — include research participants who speak multiple languages to improve the representativeness, equity, and rigor of their research.
MRJC membership includes:
- Linguists
- Interpreters
- Translators
- Patients/families
- Community members
- Advocates
- Healthcare providers across disciplines (from pediatrics to obstetrics and surgery)
- Researchers
