Parallel workshops on Day 2:
Name and description of workshop
How to establish a PPI group
This is a hands-on workshop that will explore the importance of establishing the purpose of a PPI group. It will help attendees to develop their skills to creatively communicate research to diverse groups of people and help attendees develop a range of strategies that they can use to establish PPI groups with public collaborators who have skills and experience relevant to the work being done.
Atypical landscapes for PPI
This workshop is about PPI in research where it might be less clear how patients and members of the public can contribute, for example lab-based studies, big data studies that don’t collect data directly from patients, or policy-driven evidence synthesis. The workshop will cover why PPI is still important and how patients and public members can be involved in these ‘less obvious’ projects for PPI and experiential knowledge contributions.
Physical spaces
This workshop is about the physical spaces we use when carrying out PPIE. We’ll explore why the choice of venue really matters for successful involvement. We’ll cover in more detail what we need to consider when choosing, setting up and using a meeting space. Some of these factors might not be the most obvious, and you may be surprised by the locations that have been used for some excellent PPIE meetings!
Working with seldom heard groups
The aim of this workshop is to delve into the conversation surrounding so-called ‘seldom-heard’ groups – who do these groups consist of? Who decides which people get ‘heard’, or indeed, ‘listened-to? Why do we decide not to hear these groups, and how can we do better? In this workshop, we will be exploring the above questions in creative ways, to get you thinking about the experiences of those who are continually overlooked within health research.
