This meeting is the second of a series of events, aiming to provide an opportunity to discuss Public Involvement & Engagement (PIE) priorities of Alliance members and partner organisations, explore ways to reduce complexities and drive adoption of best practice in public engagement and involvement, and gain insight into the Public Engagement in Data Research Initiative (PEDRI)'s strategic objectives.
The (PEDRI) initiative builds on a sector-wide desire to share learning, best practice, and collaborate on public involvement and engagement (PIE) in data-driven research and statistics. PEDRI was officially launched on 19th October 2022 as a partnership between Administrative Data Research UK (ADR UK), Data and Analytics Research Environments UK (DARE UK), Health Data Research UK (HDR UK), NHS Transformation Directorate (NHS TD), Research Data Scotland, and the Office for National Statistics (ONS).
PEDRI has recently received funding from DARE UK and is a formal DARE UK community group. As part of this, PEDRI is forging a strategic partnership with the Alliance. This partnership marks a significant step towards achieving our shared goals in data research and enhancing the impact we can make in our community. The Alliance’s wealth of expertise and resources will complement PEDRI's mission and initiatives, and we forward to the collaboration.
