Sent: 27 March 2018 18:13 To: NCCPE-PEN at JISCMAIL.AC.UK Subject: UK Participatory Research Meeting, Nottingham, 12 April 2018 Apologies for cross-posting. Just a reminder, that there is still time to book for this meeting in Nottingham on 12th April. One of the issues we will explore is the impact agenda and the implications for participatory research. UK Participatory Research Network Next Meeting: Thursday 12th April 2018 Time: 10.30 am - 4pm Venue: Nottingham University, Dearing Building, Rooms C45/C49 (scroll down for travel information) The UK Participatory Research Network embraces the philosophy, principles and potential of participatory research. Our aim is to share and develop our skills, knowledge and understanding of participatory research and contribute to its development. Outline Programme for the Day Morning session 10.30 Arrival (Hot and cold drinks) 10.45 Introductions and scene setting 11.15 Member?s presentation: Nottingham University: focus to be confirmed. 12.15 ? 12. 45 Group discussion of the above 12.45 ? 1.30 Lunch, Poster discussion and networking ? do bring any information/posters you would like to display that might help others connect to your work. Afternoon session 1.30-3.0 Participatory Research and the ?Impact Agenda?: challenges and solutions The afternoon session will focus on the notion of impact. A participatory research approach that is directly embedded in communities and is more action-oriented than research that takes a distanced, objectified approach, should afford great potential for demonstrating impact. The call for a more overt demonstration of research impact and evidence of that impact has, however, been tied to certain ways of framing, understanding, and documenting evidence (Penfield et al 2014). Efforts to trace and measure the impacts of research activity have overwhelmingly been shaped by accountability metrics and an interest in capturing linear relationships in research. For participatory researchers understandings of impact seldom map neatly onto conventional indicators or simplistic metrics. The question of how to recognize the nature and form of impact(s) in participatory research against this backdrop has its challenges and has been an emerging area of inquiry in health and social research. This will be the topic for our discussion in the afternoon. 3.00 Discussion time re Network: update on papers, future plans, questions, ideas and possibilities. If you have something you would like to raise at this session, such as a request for help on an aspect of your work, please let me know in advance. 4.00 Close If you would like to book a place at the meeting on the 12th April 2018, please e mail Tina Cook cookt at hope.ac.uk Please do remember to say if you have any special requirements, including dietary requirements, and if you are bringing a poster.
