Supporting Platforms

The supporting platforms of RESPIRE increase the ability of our partners to plan, undertake and implement the findings of research in their countries.

The supporting platforms focus on:

  • working with the people who are affected by RESPIRE's research, ‘Stakeholder Engagement & Community Engagement and Involvement
  • increasing the number of health professionals and researchers who are trained to undertake high quality research, ‘Education and capacity building
  • maximising the uses that research data can be put to in safe and secure ways, ‘Open Science, Data & Methodologies’, and
  • enabling access to resources through 'Digital Health and Innovation' and 'Knowledge Mobilisation Hub'.
