The PCIE team co-designed a guide in conjunction with researchers and public members to help get you started in Public Community Involvement & Engagement (PCIE).  

​

Aimed at researchers and public members alike, each section gives a short introduction to all elements needed to be considered for good quality PCIE, with additional resources available for those needing more detailed information. 

​
