Improving Diverse and Equitable Involvement of Patients and Caregivers in Research in CKD: Report of a Better Evidence and Translation – Chronic Kidney Disease (BEAT-CKD) Workshop

Patient and caregiver involvement can enhance the uptake and impact of research, however, the involvement of patients and caregivers who are underserved and marginalized is often limited. A better understanding of how to make involvement in research more broadly accessible, supportive, and inclusive for patients with CKD and caregivers is needed. We conducted a national workshop involving patients, caregivers, clinicians and researchers across Australia to identify strategies to increase the diversity of patients and caregivers involved in CKD research.
