This will be a collaborative workshop on the practical implementation of Engaged Research principles across disciplines and methods with the goal of
familiarising participants with the principles of community-based participatory research,
providing practical guidance on how participants may be able to incorporate engaged elements into their existing research,
and providing tools for connecting with communities, and navigating barriers (power dynamics, institutional barriers)
The workshop requires your active participation to the extent you are comfortable. It will include group work and we ask that, if you feel comfortable, you bring an object that means something to you (and whose story you feel comfortable sharing with others).
