PhD Participatory Research Network Session 3

Welcome to the third session of the PhD Participatory Research Network! Join us at Room 1.16 (F-WB1.16), Franklin Wilkins Building at King's College London for insightful discussions with fellow PhD students interested in participatory research methods.

Each month, we meet to explore how participatory values can be embedded in PhD-level research, combining workshops, peer discussions, and occasional guest speakers. Together, we aim to build collective resources, insights, and guidance by PhD students, for PhD students.

For this session, we will welcome our guest speaker, Louise Ward, a PhD researcher at Bournemouth University and PPIE advisor for Imperial & Partners NIHR Research Support Service/Imperial CTU. Louise is researching how public involvement has changed since Covid. She will discuss how she’s co-designing her participatory Appreciative Inquiry study with public contributors and the practical lessons learned for PhD-level public involvement and co-production.

Our network is open to all PhD students from any institution, no matter where you are in your participatory research journey!
