Three NIHR Research Schools' Mental Health Programme Seminar Series
What should emotionally safe coproduced research with lived experience researchers on sensitive topics look like?
Reflections from a co-produced systematic review
📅 Wednesday 22 October 2025
🕛 12:00 – 1:00 PM (Online)
Join us for an insightful seminar led by Dr Tessa Morgan, presenting best practice guidelines for conducting emotionally safe research alongside lived experience researchers working on sensitive topics in underserved communities.
These guidelines were co-produced with three diverse lived experience researchers and draw on a systematic review of 41 papers published over the last decade. The session will explore how emotional safety is shaped by organisational, ideological, interpersonal, and identity-related factors, and how inequalities can impact researchers’ experiences.
Whether you're a healthcare professional, researcher, or simply interested in mental health and inclusive research practices, this seminar is for you.
