Engagement Awardee Lunch and Learn: Engagement in Practice -- Success Stories Across PCORI-funded Projects

This webinar highlighted two PCORI-funded awardees who have received both Engagement awards and research study awards and explored key aspects of their journey to successfully move research forward with a more intentional focus on stakeholder engagement.

Awardees shared the engagement strategies they developed and utilized in their Engagement Award and notable lessons learned from applying such strategies within their patient-centered outcomes research/comparative clinical effectiveness research (PCOR/CER) projects.

In addition to providing an overview of their projects and key lessons learned, awardees discussed similarities and differences in utilizing certain strategies in each award mechanism. Finally, information was shared regarding how awardees may have implemented virtual engagement strategies in the past year to adapt to the evolving context around the COVID-19 pandemic.
