The project is funded by the European Union through the REINFORCING Open Call programme, under the REINFORCING project, which supports responsible and inclusive research and innovation across Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The stakeholder engagement activities brought together patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals, researchers, academics, civil society representatives, and healthcare managers to explore how patients can play a more active role in healthcare innovation, research, and healthcare service improvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through structured discussions and co-creation exercises, participants shared perspectives on patient engagement, representation, compensation, accessibility, psychological safety, governance, and decision-making. The meetings explored practical approaches for involving patients throughout the innovation lifecycle, from identifying healthcare needs to evaluating solutions and contributing to governance processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Insights gathered during these activities will contribute to the development of the PEARL Guidebook, a practical resource designed to help healthcare organizations, living labs, and research teams implement meaningful, ethical, and inclusive patient engagement practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Through PEARL-Lab, BMG and STAMINA Living Lab continue their commitment to advancing patient-centered healthcare innovation and strengthening participatory approaches within healthcare research and service development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Funding acknowledgement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PEARL-Lab is funded by the European Union through the REINFORCING Open Call programme.
