“The community are the funders and beneficiaries of health care, and health and medical research. We are all the collective custodians of our health and research systems. We must work together through research and healthcare improvement, to shape our health system to best serve our community.”

Professor Helena Teede

MCHRI’s Consumer and Community Involvement (CCI) strategy is consumer and community centred.  Consumers are the focus at each stage and CCI is embedded across our six research projects and networks.  

All MCHRI projects are coproduced in initiation, planning, execution and translation.  This optimises health outcomes as it ensures that community need and priorities are embedded in research and implementation.

Researchers work with consumers and the community to establish research questions and this guides our grant proposals.  This partnership continues during the research, and as research outcomes are translated into changes in practice and policy.

CCI is embedded in MCHRI’s 6 research areas
