Research Seminar: Big Participatory Research
The McGill Department of Family Medicine presents 鈥淏ig Participatory Research鈥� with聽Neil Andersson, MD, PhD
Dr. Neil Andersson is a physician-epidemiologist and current director of Participatory Research at McGill (PRAM), He coined the term Big Participatory Research as part of a response to the Big Problems of the day, including the HIV pandemic, youth suicide, gendered violence, obesity, dementia associated with aging, resistant arboviral vectors spreading to urban areas and, in all off these and other areas, failure of public services to reach those who are most in need. Big Participatory Research applies participatory tools and activities to a range of services and enterprises, to interventions and, beyond its usual place in small-scale local projects, to large sale multi-disciplinary research. Across many if not all sectors, people expect to have a say in matters that affect them; managers of services delivery, governments and industry need reliable ways to hear end-user voices and to find common ground with stakeholders on quality improvement. In education, participatory research activities are relevant not just to engage learners with special needs, but to nearly all learners and their families.
