5 TOP TIPS: Engaging Consumers in Research

Posted on April 5, 2022

Do you have consumers already involved in your research project or plan to engage with them soon? Annelise Morris (Health Translation SA Senior Project Officer) share’s her top 5 tips on engaging consumers in research below!

🧑 ENGAGE EARLY – bring consumers on board in the planning/preparation phase of the project.

✔️ CLARIFY EXPECTATIONS – clearly articulate the consumer’s role and how their input will be used to inform the project.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 BUILD MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIPS – consumer engagement is strongest when genuine, two-way relationships exist between researchers and consumers

💡 BE WILLING TO CHANGE – consider how the project can be adjusted or re-directed when new ideas are shared

📧 KEEP IN REGULAR CONTACT – keep consumers updated on the progress of the project so they are more prepared for the next stage of engagement.
