Surfacing the Meaning of Research
We aim to provide a strong foundation from which to build and grow the HDRC collaboratively. “Surfacing the Meaning of Research” was an event aimed at everyone who is interested in being part of, or benefiting from, engaging with the HDRC. The session aimed to:
- surface our diverse understandings of research, and
- its importance for creating a shared appreciation of what research means.
Whilst we can all get on board with fixing health determinants including:
- food
- housing
- debt
- employment, etc
we often have different views of how this should be done.
That’s where research comes in:
- how do we plan
- conduct, and
- use research
in a way that helps us to understand health determinants, their impacts and how to improve them?
This session was for everyone interested in the HDRC, not just those who regularly generate or use research. The understanding surfaced during the session will also lead into our HDRC work examining skills and priorities for the HDRC.
