What are the barriers to effective community-university partnerships?
![Page 10: Engaging University and Community Partners for Positive Change Presentation by: Phil Nyden Loyola University Chicago Center for Urban Research and Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649e105503460f94afc058/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Barriers: the discipline defines Barriers: the discipline defines research prioritiesresearch priorities
university-based research focuses on furthering knowledge in the discipline
social change is not the primary goal
the theoretical is favored over the practical

Barriers: Community-based Barriers: Community-based research is seen as biasedresearch is seen as biased
without unbiased “outside” without unbiased “outside” researchers, data analysis might be researchers, data analysis might be manipulated to serve political endsmanipulated to serve political ends

Barriers: Community-based Barriers: Community-based research is perceived as parochialresearch is perceived as parochial
traditional academic culture gives higher value to the “national or global” than to the “local”
research is seen as limited in scope and less powerful in its application
![Page 13: Engaging University and Community Partners for Positive Change Presentation by: Phil Nyden Loyola University Chicago Center for Urban Research and Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649e105503460f94afc058/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Barriers: Tenure and promotion Barriers: Tenure and promotion guidelinesguidelines
publications and contributions to “the field” favored over impact on society
“demonstrated contributions to the improved quality of life in society” not generally a category on the balance sheet
indifference and even hostility to community engagement
