Brendan McCormak - ChangeMaker Chat - Co-design

from ChangeMakers

There is a lot of talk about co-design and community engagement in research and public policy - but in practice a lot of that talk ends up looking like window dressing rather than real community partnership. We talk to one of the world's leading co-design, community engaged researchers in nursing - Professor Brendan McCormak Head of the Nursing School at the University of Sydney - to find out strategies for how he involves patients and nurses in the creation of research. The result is not only an amazing story about a career of co-created knowledge, but a series of powerful insights and strategies for anyone interested in the art of working WITH others in building solutions and knowledge. You can find out more about Brendan here. For more on ChangeMakers check us out: Via our Website - https://changemakerspodcast.org (where you can also sign up to our email list!)
