Facilitating meaningful consumer and community engagement in research: co-designing plain language guides for applied health research projects

Through an iterative co-design process, we have developed research guides that seek to build consumers' capacity to engage more deeply in any given project, throughout the research process. They are positioned to support more equitable consumer engagement that better reflects the diversity of the communities we serve including those with diverse health literacy needs.

Abstract

Through an iterative co-design process, we have developed research guides that seek to build consumers' capacity to engage more deeply in any given project, throughout the research process. They are positioned to support more equitable consumer engagement that better reflects the diversity of the communities we serve including those with diverse health literacy needs.
