Patient engagement and partnership asks both patient partners and researchers to work differently. While the idea of ‘nothing about us without us’ is a driving force behind this work, being able to systematically document and evaluate the impacts of engagement and partnering can help demonstrate its value, support further investment, and measure key outcomes of interest.
Join the Public and Patient Engagement Collaborative (PPEC), McMaster University for a 1-day workshop to learn from case studies of patient engagement evaluation across health research projects, networks and institutes. We will share approaches and findings, along with successes and challenges faced along the way. By the end of the workshop, participants will have a good understanding of the range of evaluation tools available, how to use and choose between them, how to plan for and execute engagement evaluation activities with focus on measuring impact, and how troubleshoot common challenges.
Workshop format:
9am – 12pm: Introduction to Impact Evaluation
• Key concepts
• Introduction to evaluation tools

12 – 1pm: Lunch and Networking
1 – 4pm: Developing an evaluation plan
• Work through the Engage with Impact toolkit, accompanied by examples from case studies, to develop evaluation plans for attendees’ projects
• Group discussions on challenges, troubleshooting and next steps
Space is limited to 35 attendees. There is no fee to attend the workshop.
