WHO CAN ATTEND?

This workshop is intended for experts, researchers and clinicians working within any field of diabetes and endocrinology, including basic, translational and clinical research and/or interdisciplinary work within fields related to diabetes and endocrinology, as well as public involvement. In addition, we welcome the public with experience in conditions stemming from these fields to join the workshop, e.g. people living with a disease, their relatives or volunteers in NGO’s.

30 seats are reserved for invited participants from a variety of fields and with a wide range of experience in public and user involvement. Participants with a wealth of experience in public/user involvement and those with less or no experience, as well as users, are invited.

There are 5 seats open for participation by application. Prospective participants can apply for one of these open seats by submitting a statement of motivation on the registration form. Participants must represent areas within the DDEA scope, ranging from basic to psychosocial research, or be people living with a diabetic, metabolic or endocrine disease, their relatives or volunteers from NGO’s.

If the event is overbooked, the DDEA reserves the right to select participants based on the defined requirements.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

'Public involvement and outreach' is one of DDEA’s strategic themes, with a purpose to facilitate collaborations between researchers and the Danish community. Furthermore, the DDEA enhances the quality of diabetes and endocrine research in Denmark through four key activity areas: education and talent development, networking and collaboration, grants, and communication. Public and user involvement should be integrated into these activities in timely, relevant and appropriate ways. Therefore, the aim of this workshop is to develop ideas for relevant opportunities for public and user involvement in the work of the DDEA.

Workshop discussions will culminate in a catalogue of ideas and written recommendations to DDEA's boards, committees and secretariat. These recommendations are expected to be considered and used when posting grants for research, providing education and networking events and planning communications.
