Research Inclusion and Health Inequalities

Research works better when more people are part of it

Research Inclusion and Health Inequalities

LEAD: Shivani Sharma

CO-LEAD: Roisin Mooney

This cross-cutting theme aims to enable diversity in research through the development and scaling of evidence-based inclusion methodologies.

We’re changing how research is undertaken so that more people can benefit. We want to involve more people in research, particularly from groups and communities who haven’t traditionally taken part. That means designing new ways for people to engage by addressing the things that often get in the way such as confidence, cost, age, format, and/or culture. We’re designing with communities so that our methods genuinely unlock opportunities to contribute- together shaping better health and care.
