Patient and Public Engagement Collaborative Partnership
Guiding CHI since 2017
Our Patient and Public Engagement Collaborative Partnership—a diverse group of patients, caregivers, and community members—provide critical input into CHI’s organizational governance, strategic planning, and all aspects of PE in health research work.

Where We Invest Our Energy
We collaboratively work together with open minds and open hearts to inspire present and future generations of students, researchers, clinicians, policy- and decision-makers in Manitoba to meaningfully engage with people with lived/living experience of health conditions and perspectives historically excluded from health research and systems decision-making.
Our Priority Areas
Each year, we identify those areas of health that are most pressing to Manitobans.
