The ninth biennial INVOLVE conference will take place on 26 and 27 November at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Birmingham.

The conference will bring together people with a common interest in public involvement in NHS, public health and social care research.

The organisers are inviting presentation on the conference theme of Changing Landscapes. This could include changes to organisations with a remit for public involvement, changing expectations for public involvement and innovative ways to involve the public in research.

We are inviting presentations on this theme that will encourage debate and discussion on the following topic areas relating to public involvement in NHS, public health and social care research:

  • range and diversity
  • learning and development
  • recording and assessing the impact
  • international perspectives
  • future directions
