Learn about how DiPo engages individuals with lived and living experience in our research.

Our friends at Kids Brain Health Network profiled our ADVANCE Network Caregiver Advisory Council to demonstrate how to engage persons with lived and living experience (PWLLE) meaningfully throughout research projects. This council is working with our newly formed ADVANCE (Alliance for Disability Voices, Advocacy, and National Community Empowerment) Network, which brings together academics, community partners, and PWLLE across Canada. The goal of the ADVANCE Network is to to enhance the design, delivery, and equitable access to disability policies and programs for youth with disabilities and their families through co-designed research and knowledge mobilization.
