Community Engaged and Coproductive Research Symposium

A free, one day symposium hosted by Melbourne Social Equity Institute

-----

The core feature of community-engaged and coproductive research is a high level of community decision‑making and partner involvement in the purpose, design, conduct and use of research.

These approaches recognise the significant expertise of people affected by social inequities and engage with them as active agents in designing research for positive social change. They also recognise the value of engaging across sectors to access diverse knowledge and research settings, and support the strong take‑up of new research evidence.

This all day event will feature panel discussions on a range of topics related to community-engaged and coproductive research including decolonising research practice, trauma-informed research and dealing with disclosures and vicarious trauma, and lived experience researcher experiences and wellbeing.

Please visit the Melbourne Social Equity Institute website for speaker and program updates.

A light lunch will be provided at no cost.
