Community of Consumers

What is it?

The CEIH Community of Consumers formed to engage consumers, carers and the community in a meaningful way to ensure their experiences and expertise guides The CEIH in its program of work.

The overarching purpose is to:

  • Provide a stronger voice for consumers, carers and the community in the work of The CEIH and other health organisations
  • Provide consumer, carer and community connections and networking with other groups.
  • Support opportunities for capability development and greater understanding of clinical engagement.

Principles for Consumer, Carer and Community Engagement

We have worked with consumers to define Principles for Consumer, Carer and Community Engagement. These are:

  • Partnership
  • Participation
  • Respect
  • Accessibility
  • Diversity.
