Aims and objectives
The main objective of the GIN Public Working Group is to promote ways to inform and involve the public in guideline activity around the world. GIN Public offers a forum of exchange between patient and public organisations, guideline developers, researchers, and others with an interest in patient and public involvement. This is mainly done through our discussion forum, working group meetings, and by holding workshops and presentations at conferences such as the GIN annual meeting.
Specific aims are to:
- Provide a network for discussion of emerging methodology for patient and public involvement in guidelines
- Provide a forum for the development of collaborations for guideline organisations and researchers who wish to improve patient and public involvement in guidelines
- Develop standard methods on patient involvement in guideline development and implementation
