Sustaining Long-term Impact in POR: How to make your research matter in the long term

Moderator: Dr. Rachel Flynn | Panelists: Dr. Karen Benzies & Jeanna Morrissey

Description: Integrating patient-centered research findings into routine care is complex and requires thoughtful and calculated considerations. It is important to consider the long term impact (or sustainability) of the research initiative early on, to ensure that the positive impacts can continue past the traditional research project period. Sustainability research is a relatively new frontier in health research, and there are great examples of people doing this work in Alberta. In this video, the presenters explore what sustainability in health research can look like, and why sustainability research is important.

Land Acknowledgment

The Alberta SPOR SUPPORT Unit operates on and acknowledges the lands that are the traditional and ancestral territory of many peoples, presently subject to Treaties 6, 7, and 8. Namely: the Blackfoot Confederacy – Kainai, Piikani, and Siksika – the Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, Nakota Sioux, Stoney Nakoda, and the Tsuu T’ina Nation and the Métis People of Alberta. This includes the Métis Settlements and the Métis Nation of Alberta. We acknowledge the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations. We make this acknowledgment as a reaffirmation of our shared commitment towards reconciliation, and as part of AbSPORU’s mandate towards fostering health system transformation.
