<p dir="ltr">The Pop-up Guide provides detailed information about how an intervention designed to support better access to primary healthcare evolved in one setting over five years. In the Pop-up Guide, we share what we learned through the experience of designing, implementing, and evaluating this community-based participatory intervention in Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada as part of the IMPACT program of research (2013-2018).</p><p dir="ltr">This guide is a <b>partner publication to the Collaboration for Spread Handbook </b><a href="https://doi.org/10.26181/28622153" target="_blank">https://doi.org/10.26181/28622153</a> In this Pop-up Guide, we illustrate the ways in which the Collaboration for Spread approach can be used to guide design, implementation, and evaluation of community-based participatory research. By sharing our experiences, we aim to support similar interventions in other settings and show how the approach works in practice. The Pop-up Guide will be relevant to all stakeholders involved in implementing pop-up health and social service events in community settings, but it is specifically designed for <b>researchers or innovators who are supporting and monitoring</b><b> </b><b>the</b><b> </b><b>intervention</b><b> </b>with the express intention of learning from the process.</p>
