PEPR Partnership

Participant Engagement Research (ParE) Hub

The ParE Hub is a vital component of PEPR’s mission to create a collaborative space for people with lived experience of chronic pain and marginalization (PWLECPM) to engage with researchers, policy makers, advocates, and other members of the chronic pain community

Creating a Safe Space for PWLECPM

The Virtual Hub serves as a safe space for people with lived experience of chronic pain and marginalization. It aims to address their isolation, provide educational materials, and foster a community of practice.

Establishing the Virtual Research Hub

Overview

The Hub will provide sustainability for people with lived experience to engage in innovative research.

Knowledge Sharing

Hub users will inform how research is organized and conducted, share knowledge, and build relationships.

Benefits

The Hub aims to support PWLE by reducing their vulnerability on research teams and enhancing their ability to make systems change.

Connections

All of PEPR's research projects and communities will feed into the Hub.

Creating a Hub for Empowering Research

At PEPR, we are dedicated to establishing a Hub that provides a safe space for PLWECPM and researchers.

Our goal is to address the isolation and vulnerability experienced by sole PWLECPM on research projects. Through the Hub, we aim to create a home for co-developed educational materials, making them easily accessible and reviewable as they are developed. By fostering a community of practice, we contribute towards sustainability and empower PWLECPM.
