How can we support meaningful engagement with community stakeholders in substance use research?
On 29th January 2025 we organised an event around meaningful engagement in research. The aim was to explore experiences and practices of Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) in research in Scotland.
This report is a summary of discussions among 37 people representing lived/living experience, academia, public and third sector who attended the event. They told us about their experiences and thoughts on PPIE in drugs research. We hope this document will be informative for those planning to engage with PPIE for future drugs research projects. We thank each person who was in attendance for their contribution.
