- The Long Conversation will inform the national strategy for lived-experience in mental health research. Some more questions also raised at the forum for discussion: National strategy clarification: what are typologies and typology sharing? I wonder where the points of resistance to consumer research are - and why they continue to exist? Difficult when the structures and rules don't match the intentions & aspirations - ie. lived experience researchers commonly not having continuing positions. Should we define lived experience or not? and if yes, how would we define or describe what lived experience is?

- A few questions that were raised at the ALIVE National Centre September Quarterly forum to think on- feel free to respond to any! How do we identify the benefits of lived experience research? Are you capturing clinician-researchers with lived experience? Do you think some of the professional registration requirements impact safety of disclosure? Future direction: is there scope to support researchers who do not, or sometimes, disclose their lived experience to decide if, how, and when to disclose? Is it important to understand or measure the impact in some way so we can better identify when lived experience is not incorporated well? Is there scope to be looking into mixed methods approaches (quantitative +qualitative data collection)? Both approaches have benefits and costs. Ways to reach other people: Are there slides/handouts/links to slidos ALIVE members could take to events? Espec. with mental health month and conferences coming

— ALIVE Forum

The forum offers a place for dialogue and exchange for lived-experience researchers engaged in mental health research.

Membership includes lived-experience researchers in community organisations or governments working on mental health research projects and people with lived-experience who may partner with researchers for co-design or co-production research so that they connect with others.

It’s a supportive forum to share experiences, grow networks, and to talk about skills and training needs that people might benefit from, including building lived-expertise as an evidence base.

The ALIVE Lived-Experience Research Collective Forum is a supportive, safe and anonymous space.

We ask you to read the following before posting to the forum:
