A day focussing on co-production research attending to questions of movement, physical activity and medical humanities.

A day focussing on co-production research attending to questions of movement, physical activity and medical humanities.

This event will offer a day focus on co-production research that attends to questions of movement, physical activity and medical humanities. The content will be directed for both academics and practitioners. We will primarily be considering three key questions, which will address:

  1. What is co-production?
  2. How do we understand quality in co-production?
  3. What is next for co-production?

There will be a range of different sessions including a hybrid keynote in the morning, followed by an afternoon roundtable discussion. Please see the agenda below.

Please note that you can attend the keynote in-person or online, but the rest of the day is in-person only.

This event is free to attend, and the Zoom details will be circulated closer to the date.

This event is jointly hosted by the Moving Social Work (MSW) project, Institute for Medical Humanities and the Moving Bodies Lab of the Discovery Research Platform for Medical Humanities.
