Most organisations are focused on supporting stakeholders and improving their practice and approach to P&C research, such as offering training and enhancing payment procedures. We are not aware of any existing P&C research training specifically targeted at organisations in Tower Hamlets. However, the Greater London Authority recently supported Xia Lin (project lead in this study) in delivering P&C research learning workshops for policymakers from 15 local, regional, and national organisations.
Currently, training for P&C researchers is primarily delivered by P&C research providers and universities. For example, Megan Clinch and Sara Paparini (project leads in this study) designed and delivered a 5 day course to 10 P&C researchers 14 who work with different organisations in east London on various health and health determinants projects. Toynbee Hall and The Centre for Creative Collaboration at QMUL, are currently delivering a project that works with young P&C researchers to ensure they are meaningfully included in academic research.
