The project aims to establish a ‘toolkit’ to make research participation more accessible and support researchers to include more disabled people, especially through participatory research and collaboration.
This project is currently running, so watch this space for updates.
The Plan
The Plan
This project will begin with a literature review around current practices regarding the participation of disabled people in research. This will support the second phase of the project where we will consult members of the disabled community using a mixed methods approach to help identify barriers to research participation, such as practices that unnecessarily omit or exclude disabled individuals, and to incorporate this information into an achievable and reasonable set of guidelines for researchers.
Where we can, we aim to consult researchers directly about perceived issues when it comes to disabled participant inclusion, and to obtain the thoughts of disabled researchers themselves on these issues.
