Study Abstract Presentation: Participatory Health Research: Challenges and Approaches How do we bring in stakeholders to actively participate in health research? Patients and stakeholders are increasingly sharing their expertise to direct research priorities and improve research implementation and dissemination. There is a great amount of diversity in approaches to co-producing research, from who initiates research to the roles that patients and stakeholders play throughout the research process. Effective participatory research must overcome a range of challenges, from deciding who 'represents' patient and stakeholder views to assessing the impact of stakeholder involvement on research outcomes. We will describe a range of methods that have been used by research teams to engage patients and stakeholders, with a view toward emerging models of engagement and co-production. We will then take a closer look at two methods: the SEED Method for research question development and prioritization, and the Sí Texas partnership-centered evaluation model. Office of Research and Evaluation The Corporation for National and Community Service sponsors and supports scholarly research. Findings are used to identify effective strategies for national service, increase the evidence-base for its programs, and strengthen civic infrastructure and civic engagement in America. ORE builds, shares, and uses knowledge in multiple ways. Our CNCS webpages include ongoing and completed studies and evaluation resources.
