Becoming a GSRU

To apply, a prospective GSRU requires two partner organizations (one North American, one Latin American/Caribbean) with a PI and lead research fellow from each respective organization. If an applicant does not have a partner PI, we encourage a formal request to the LAIRC for partnership assistance to begin a process for match.

The key development block enabling learner-driven LCoGS data collection in the LAIRC framework through multisectoral, multiprofessional HIC and LMIC partnerships

The GSRU is the formal working unit of the LAIRC framework that uses team science to steward LMIC and HIC unification and implementation of large-scale learner-driven WDI data collection for qualitative and quantitative analysis and interpretation.

It is founded upon:

Formalized partnerships among Latin American, Caribbean and North American institutions

In the beginning, a 1 :: 1 ; HIC :: LMIC faculty and research fellow

The Research team led by two Primary Investigators (PIs), one from each partner institution

Daily tasks/activities guided by two research fellows, one from each partner institution that facilitate coordination and action of the local GSRU
