Description: Involve Australia has engaged with the public to develop community involvement guidelines for genomic researchers. The project partnered with patient support and advocacy groups, patients and carers, people who involve community in their research, interested members of the public, genomic researchers and healthcare professionals.
The project investigated the public and community involvement landscape in Australian healthcare research and used existing resources to aid the development of guidelines specifically for genomic research.
Unlike many guidelines, Involve Australia built its guidelines from the community member perspective. This allowed community members to highlight what they need if they are to continue to be involved in research. Ensuring their needs are built into genomic researchers’ involvement strategies before projects begin provides a standard for other fields of healthcare research. Ultimately, this will improve patients’ journeys towards better health.

Community Involvement Guidelines for Genomic Researchers
Impact: Guidelines will be piloted and evaluated 2024-2025.
This is a set of 17 recommendations divided into five overarching domains that describe key elements of good community involvement practice.
publication/report/document
Australian Genomics Consumer Honoraria and Reimbursement Policy
Impact: This policy is being used across several Australian Genomics priority projects and being used/adapted by partner projects.
This was developed to ensure Australian Genomics and its supported projects are provided with the appropriate guidance for community member payment.
