Join University of Warwick academics and the members of the public they have collaborated with for an evening that showcases the importance of community voice for impactful research.
Talks will convey the diverse perspectives of academics and public contributors who work together to draw lived experience into meaningful research. We’ll hear from partnerships that look to improve mental wellbeing in the construction industry, and those focused on improving how we – the public – request help and how emergency services respond, as well as the innovative video technology that is transforming the landscape of emergency care.
Each talk will be followed by a short Q&A session allowing you to engage with our speakers and share your thoughts.
A cold buffet will be provided, and there is a bar on site to purchase beverages.
