Living Proof: Experience as Evidence in Pain Research
Part 2 of Episode 2 - Why Do We Need an EDID Lens in Pain Research?
Our language around pain overlooks the collective impact of colonization. Stay tuned for the latest episode of #LivingProofPodcast from #PeprPartnership.
If we aim to truly #PriortizePain, all experiences and communities must be engaged. At PEPR, we’re developing a culturally responsive framework for engaging Indigenous patients that bridges academic methodologies with Indigenous healing practices and knowledge systems.
#NPAW2025 #PeprPartnership
This #NPAW2025, be mindful of the guidelines and frameworks that shape #patientengagement. #PEPRPartnership is conducting an interpretive synthesis to identify the assumptions underpinning PE frameworks in order to re-imagine what it might look like in ways that promote equity and decolonization.

Meaningful engagement is a call to recognized lived experience AS evidence. Thank you Jenny Lorca, for this perspective.
