Ecosystem Engagement

Bringing people together to shape the future of health and care.

We engage with policymakers, researchers, healthcare professionals, industry, patients and the public to ensure our work is relevant, accessible and informed by the needs of the health and care system.

Why We Engage?

Effective horizon scanning depends on collaboration and shared understanding.

Through engagement, we listen to diverse perspectives, share knowledge and support the effective use of our work. By bringing together expertise from across the health and care ecosystem, we help ensure our outputs are relevant, accessible and responsive to evolving system needs.

  • Stakeholder Engagement – Working with organisations across health and care to understand needs and priorities.
  • Public Involvement – Ensuring patient and public perspectives inform our work.
  • Knowledge Exchange – Sharing learning through events, networks and collaborative activities.
  • Communications – Providing clear, accessible information about our work and its value.
  • Partnerships -Building strategic partnerships with organisations that bring complementary expertise, knowledge and perspectives, helping us strengthen our methods, enhance delivery and maximise the value of our work.
