UCL Health+Public Impact Fellowship Sessions

An introduction to research impact focused on public engagement/ awareness and coproduction, focused on health researchers.

Zoom

S﻿ome of the most profound impacts health research can have is when the public are involved in producing and implementing findings. But public engagement-based impact case studies are often seen as riskier choices than other types of impact, with what are considered &quot;softer&quot; outcomes being showcased and difficulties around evidencing of the impact.T﻿his session is co-lead by Lynn Laidlaw, an experienced public contributor, Niccola Hutchinson-Pascal of the Coproduction Colective at UCL, and Helen Craig, PE Manager for Life and Medical Sciences at UCL. They will explore with you the impact of co-production and public engagement work and explain how to present it in the most persuasive ways to funders, service commissioners and assessors. Niccola is someone with many years&#x27; experience in working in a co-produced way, she is part of the Co-Production Collective at UCL (funded by Wellcome and UCL) with a remit to foster a research culture with collaboration and co-production at its heart, especially in health.A﻿s well as giving an overview of the involvement and engagement spectrum available to researchers who want to embed the public in their research and impact, and build your confidence at recognising when your work is already having an impact in this way and boosting its visibility.B﻿y the end of this session, you will:<ul><li>U﻿nderstand how public involvement in health research and implementation, for example PPI, relates to concepts of public engagement and public benefit as impact outcomes</li><li>Have new tools to evidence the impact of your work with public(s) in health research</li><li>F﻿eel confident in making the case for involving and engaging the public as part of grant applications, assessments and reporting</li></ul>This session is part of the &#x27;22-&#x27;23 Health and the Public Impact Fellowship development series, supported by the UCL Institute for Epidemiology and Health Care.
