If we aim to truly #PriortizePain, all experiences and communities must be engaged. At PEPR, we’re developing a culturally responsive framework for engaging Indigenous patients that bridges academic methodologies with Indigenous healing practices and knowledge systems.

This #NPAW2025, be mindful of the guidelines and frameworks that shape #patientengagement. #PEPRPartnership is conducting an interpretive synthesis to identify the assumptions underpinning PE frameworks in order to re-imagine what it might look like in ways that promote equity and decolonization.

PEPR Partnership supports meaningful engagement in #ChronicPain research in ways that move beyond the individual towards communities. Through community consultations, we’re learning collaboratively & carefully how, when & where to engage #PWLE of #pain & marginalization.
