UKPRP Community of Practice

实践社区（CoP）是在UKPRP资助的网络和联盟中工作的研究人员和同事的论坛。CoP的目的是在网络和联盟共同感兴趣的领域共同开发实践，当前思想和支持资源，以提高UKPRP资助和更广泛的预防研究的有效性和社会影响。缔约方会议将提供一个重要的朋友环境，支持学习以提高现有小组的效率和效力，与新的网络和联盟分享专门知识和经验，并与更广泛的预防研究界传播良好做法。该委员会的具体目标是：-在联合王国预防腐败方案所有网络和联盟之间建立一个交流网络，以促进共同学习; -建立一系列以主题为重点的发展主题，支持就共同关心的关键领域进行深入的关键性朋友对话; -通过这些论坛，开发一套可以分享的知识、方法和工具，以提高联合王国预防腐败方案资助的研究和其他预防研究的有效性和社会影响;- 广泛分享这些成果，以支持开展有效的研究合作，促进非传染性疾病的上游预防;以及CoP将为网络和联盟团队、资助者以及最终为人口健康和福祉带来好处，包括：（i）在八个网络和联盟之间建立牢固和可持续的关系，（ii）分享管理和影响方面的良好做法，为现有和新的网络和联盟的发展提供信息，同时避免重复，（iii）加快方法开发的进展，以及（iv）比较和对比不同的方法，例如共同制作、公众参与和影响，以确定影响非传染性疾病上游预防的最佳活动组合。在3年的时间里，CoP将建立一个知识体系，出版物，工具包和其他材料，以整理和分享我们的重要专业知识和经验，与英国和国际上更广泛的受众。将现有的网络和联盟作为案例研究，将使联合王国减贫方案缔约方会议的成果具有很大的可信度。我们将通过各种渠道展示这一工作，包括通过在第三年举行的旗舰研讨会，这些活动将大大提高英国PRP的形象。我们所有的产出都将开放获取，以便尽可能广泛的研究，政策和实践受众可以访问和分享我们的学习。这将支持在CoP最初的3年资助期之后继续开展强有力的预防研究，为UKPRP资助的网络和联盟的工作奠定基础。我们还将与2021年启动的新网络和联盟合作，探索如何使CoP在2023年12月之后可持续发展。该赠款由英国预防研究伙伴关系（UKPRP）资助，由医学研究理事会代表UKPRP的12个资助伙伴管理：英国心脏基金会;英国癌症研究;苏格兰政府卫生和社会保健局首席科学家办公室;工程和物理科学研究理事会;经济和社会研究理事会;威尔士政府卫生和社会保健研究与发展司;北方爱尔兰卫生和社会保健公共卫生署;医学研究理事会;自然环境研究理事会;国家卫生研究所;卫生基金会;惠康信托基金。该基金授予斯特林大学，该大学代表所有UKPRP财团和网络管理该基金。

The Community of Practice (CoP) is a forum for researchers and colleagues working in UKPRP funded Networks and Consortia. The aim of the CoP is to co-develop practice, current thinking, and supporting resources in areas of shared interest to Networks and Consortia in order to enhance the effectiveness and societal impact of both UKPRP-funded and wider prevention research. The CoP will provide a critical friend environment that supports learning to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the existing groups, shares expertise and experiences with new Networks and Consortia, and disseminates good practice with the wider prevention research community. The specific objectives of the CoP are to:- Establish a communication network across all UKPRP Networks and Consortia to facilitate shared learning; - Set up a series of topic focused Development Themes that support in-depth critical friend conversations on key areas of shared interest; - Through these forums, develop a body of knowledge, methods and tools that can be shared to enhance the effectiveness and societal impact of UKPRP-funded and other prevention research; - Share these outputs widely to support the development of effective research collaborations for upstream prevention of NCDs; and, - Raise the profile of the UKPRP in the course of the above. The CoP will deliver benefits for the Network and Consortia teams, the funders and, ultimately, population health and wellbeing, including: (i) developing strong and sustainable relationships between the eight Networks and Consortia, (ii) sharing good practice in management and impact to inform existing and new Network and Consortium development, whilst avoiding duplication, (iii) enabling faster advance in methods development, and (iv) comparing and contrasting different approaches to, for example, co-production, public engagement, and impact to identify best-buy combinations of activity for influencing upstream prevention of NCDs. Over 3 years the CoP will build a body of knowledge, publications, toolkits and other materials to collate and share our significant expertise and experience with a wider audience across the UK and internationally. The use of existing Networks and Consortia as case studies will give significant credibility to the outputs of the UKPRP CoP. We will showcase this work through a variety of channels including through a flagship symposium in year 3 of the CoP, and these activities will significantly raise the profile of the UKPRP. All of our outputs will be open access so that the widest possible research, policy and practice audience can access and share in our learning. This will support the ongoing development of strong prevention research beyond the initial 3 year funding period for the CoP, creating the foundations of a legacy for the work of UKPRP funded Networks and Consortia. We will also work with new Networks and Consortia launching in 2021 to explore how to make the CoP sustainable beyond December 2023.This grant is funded by the UK Prevention Research Partnership (UKPRP) which is administered by the Medical Research Council on behalf of the UKPRP's 12 funding partners: British Heart Foundation; Cancer Research UK; Chief Scientist Office of the Scottish Government Health and Social Care Directorates; Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council; Economic and Social Research Council; Health and Social Care Research and Development Division, Welsh Government; Health and Social Care Public Health Agency, Northern Ireland; Medical Research Council; Natural Environment Research Council; National Institute for Health Research; The Health Foundation; The Wellcome Trust.This grant is awarded to The University of Stirling which is administering the award on behalf of all the UKPRP Consortia and Networks.
