'Doing with, not to: community resilience and co-production' research report

[Olivia Hanley]

'Doing with, not to' - is the report resulting from research commissioned by NHS Education Scotland (NES) and carried out by SCDC into community resilience and co-production.

The research revolved around a practice exchange event in May 2011 involving Scottish projects carrying out work in the fields of community resilience and co-production, service providers, policy planners and others interested in sharing information. Participants took part in a story-based exercise which highlighted some of the opportunities, benefits and barriers of co-producing services. Based on the practice exchange, the report explores the connections between community resilience and co-production and also offers helpful definitions for these ideas and other related terms. It also offers recommendations for NES and other agencies who may wish to take this work forward.
