Pitfalls of Demonstrating Impact in Transdisciplinary and Participatory Research

Pitfalls of Demonstrating Impact in Transdisciplinary and Participatory Research 1024 544 Open and Universal Science (OPUS) Project

On Monday, October 21, 2024, from 10:00 to 11:30, the Working Groups (AGs) “Impact” and “Participatory Health Research” of the Society for Transdisciplinary and Participatory Research (GTPF) are organizing a discussion event titled “Pitfalls of Demonstrating Impact in Transdisciplinary and Participatory Research.”

The event will feature Simon Denegri, Executive Director of the Academy of Medical Sciences and former Chair of INVOLVE (UK). Denegri will critically explore the diverse impacts of participatory research, raising key questions such as:

“In health and social care research, we are supposedly united by our desire to make a difference. But asking what this difference is, how it is achieved, with whom, and most importantly, for whom, can reveal significant differences in the priorities of research partners. In a culture where ‘He who pays the piper calls the tune,’ what is considered ‘impact’ often reflects the priorities of funders. Can participatory research navigate this debate? And how can citizens and research partners start changing the narrative?”

The event, conducted in English, is open to all interested parties and will take place online. Alongside Denegri’s presentation, there will be ample time for exchange and discussion.

Don’t miss this opportunity to engage in a thought-provoking conversation on the complexities of measuring impact in participatory research.
