Have you wondered how research applies to your Family Carer Lived Experience role? Research isn't just about academic papers and data; it is about our collective wisdom, our stories, and the unique ways we advocate for systemic change.
This interactive workshop explores Family Carer Lived Experience (FCLE)-led research and how we can use it to guide our work. We will include highlights from TheMHS conference to explore how FCLE research is creating connection, highlighting relationality and driving change.
In this session we will explore:
- TheMHS Highlights: Share highlights, insights and ideas from FCLE-led research and presentations.
- Our Evidence Base: A look at key research that support our discipline, such as the Rising Together report.
- Research in Action: How research fits into your daily work, where it can be applied, and note gaps or future opportunities.
The Collective FCLEW workshops are intentionally designed for interaction, mutual learning, and deep-dive discussions. This practical workshop offers a unique space to build a deeper connection to your daily work. Through the mutual sharing of our expertise, we cultivate the community and collective wisdom that defines our discipline.
