variety of research methods that rest on engagement with citizens and
communities have become an increasingly important way of addressing
health issues that affect marginalised groups. <br>There are, however, key tensions that researchers face when engaging with citizens and communities. These include:<br>- Balancing interests of individual citizens and groups/communities/populations;<br>- Articulating identities in the context of intersectionality; <br>- Aiming for generalisability of findings at the risk of homogenising perspectives; and<br>- Promoting best practice engagement within the structures of academic research funding.<br><br>We
welcome submissions for oral presentations that highlight challenges
faced and lessons learned in navigating them. We are interested in the
following themes across disciplines:<br>- Conceptual, critical and theoretical analysis of engagement with individuals and communities.<br>-
Empirical perspectives and methodological designs that ensure
meaningful, equitable and inclusive engagement in health research.<br>- Strategies to increase likelihood of knowledge translation into policy or practice.<br><br>KEYNOTE SPEAKERS:<br>Professor Jackie Leach Scully<br>Director, Disability Innovation Institute, University of New South Wales<br><a href="https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/mPUKCnx1jnilgA9rAF9pidT?domain=research.unsw.edu.au" target="_blank">https://research.unsw.edu.au/people/professor-jackie-leach-scully</a><br><br>Dr Danielle Muscat<br>Westmead Lead of the Sydney Health Literacy Lab, University of <br><a href="https://www.sydney.edu.au/medicine-health/about/our-people/academic-staff/danielle.muscat.html" target="_blank">https://www.sydney.edu.au/medicine-health/about/our-people/academic-staff/danielle.muscat.html</a><br><br>SUBMISSION DETAILS:<br>Please submit the following through our submission portal <a href="https://url.au.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/S33aCoV1kpfl5j26jFzG2gV?domain=form.jotform.com" target="_blank">https://form.jotform.com/240937747383872</a> <br>• Title <br>• Abstract (250 words)<br>• Name, affiliation, and bio (max 50 words)<br><br>Submission deadline: 28 June 2024, Friday, 6 pm Sydney time.<br><br><br>About <span class="gmail-il">ACHEEV</span><br>The Australian Centre for Health Engagement, Evidence and Values (<span class="gmail-il">ACHEEV</span>)
was established in January 2019. Our work focuses on health: the health
of people, other animals, society and the planet, and how all of these
things are connected. Our research is rigorous, interdisciplinary and
independent. We are not afraid to ask difficult questions, and we have
the skills, knowledge and experience to generate meaningful answers that
can guide policy and practice.<br><br>For inquiries, please email Dr Yves Saint James Aquino at <a href="mailto:yaquino@uow.edu.au" target="_blank">yaquino@uow.edu.au</a>.<br><br>Best<font color="#888888"><br></font>
