Lived Experience Workshop

At the end of April, the IAMHRF Lived Experience Working Group hosted a workshop, entitled 'How collaboration as research funders can transform our involvement of people with lived experience of mental illness.'

The aim of the event was to bring together funders with varying levels of expertise in meaningfully involving the voices of people living with mental health conditions. Drawing on the lessons from past efforts, the workshop focused on fostering a concrete and realistic committment among funders to embracing lived experience perspectives throughout the research pipeline.
