Abstract：
Engaging young people in health research has been promoted globally. We explored the outcomes of youth advisory group on health and research engagement (YAGHRE) in rural Cambodia. In May 2021, the Mahidol Oxford Tropical Medicine Research Unit (MORU) partnered with a local health centre and a secondary school to establish a youth engagement group. Ten students underwent training and led health engagement activities in schools and communities. Activities were documented as field notes and audio-visual materials which underwent content analysis using theory of change supplemented by iterative discussions with YAGHRE members and stakeholders. Five major outcomes were identified: 1. Increased respect. Engagement activities developed based on input from students and stakeholders may have fostered greater respect. 2. Built trust and relationships. Frequent visits to MORU\'s laboratory and interactions with researchers appeared to contribute to the building of trust and relationship. 3. Improved health and research literacy. Learning new health and research topics, through participatory activities may have improved literacy; 4. Improved uptake of health and research interventions. Health promotional activities and communication with research participants potentially increased the uptake of interventions; 5. Improved community health. YAGHRE\'s health promotional interventions may have contributed in enhancing community\'s health.
摘要：
在全球范围内促进年轻人参与健康研究。我们探讨了柬埔寨农村地区青年卫生和研究参与咨询小组（YAGHRE）的成果。2021年5月，Mahidol牛津热带医学研究单位（MORU）与当地卫生中心和一所中学合作，建立了一个青年参与小组。十名学生接受了培训，并在学校和社区领导了健康参与活动。活动被记录为现场笔记和视听材料，并使用变革理论进行了内容分析，并与YAGHRE成员和利益相关者进行了反复讨论。确定了五个主要结果：1。增加尊重。根据学生和利益相关者的投入制定的参与活动可能会引起更大的尊重。2.建立信任和关系。经常访问MORU的实验室以及与研究人员的互动似乎有助于建立信任和关系。3.提高健康和研究素养。学习新的健康和研究课题，通过参与性活动可以提高识字率；4.改善健康和研究干预措施的吸收。健康促进活动和与研究参与者的沟通可能会增加干预措施的吸收；5.改善社区健康。YAGHRE的健康促进干预措施可能有助于增强社区的健康。
