Breaking Boundaries Review INVOLVE advisory group response 2014
Breaking boundaries: thinking differently about public involvement in research
The National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) is carrying out a strategic review of public involvement in health, social care and public health research to ‘examine future options for building an active collaboration with the public and making best use of their skills, knowledge and experience in the work of the NIHR’. It is expected to define a vision and set clear goals for the next ten years.
Patients and the public, researchers and clinicians, the NIHR and other organisations, were asked to contribute their views with a particular focus on the innovations and new approaches that will help the NIHR break new ground plus the barriers and challenges to be overcome in this important area. This paper is the response from INVOLVE Advisory group members to the Breaking Boundaries Review.
It is expected that the review will report Autumn 2014.
