Evaluating PPI (for Researchers)

PPI is seen as essential to improving the value and relevance of research, and the time, effort and energy expended to support it represents an investment in our research. But how can we evaluate the impact that our PPI has had, in order to know whether it has worked well and how it can be improved in the future?

This session is open to all research staff, but will particularly benefit researchers who have an established PPI strategy or are planning to incorporate PPI in their health research.

We will cover:

• Why traditional evaluation is difficult for PPI
• Planning for success
• Monitoring and recording your impact
• Why being clear and transparent about your PPI approach is important
• Existing evaluation frameworks and tools
• Reporting to funders and public contributors
