Involvement
Involvement
Our vision is to deliver research that is integral to, and designed around, the needs of consumers and the community.
To support meaningful consumer and community involvement in all stages of our research, a Consumer Involvement Strategy was developed in 2023. The Strategy describes the 5 unique levels of consumer involvement that occur across the centre and includes a range of resources to support both researchers and consumers collaborate in research activities.
A Consumer Involvement Strategy Action Group led development of the Strategy and oversees its implementation.
For more information about CHESM’s commitment to consumer involvement in research, please refer to the Consumer Involvement Strategy Policy document and the details of CHESM’s Consumer Involvement Levels.
