Dr Clarissa Giebel - Building non-academic collaborations

Dr Clarissa Giebel narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

Clarissa's blog emphasises the value of non-academic collaborations in academia, particularly in dementia and social care research. She highlights the importance of incorporating diverse expertise, including professionals and stakeholders from the healthcare and social care sectors. Clarissa suggests leveraging existing networks and digital platforms to foster these collaborations, emphasising reciprocal relationships and the inclusion of non-academic perspectives in research. The blog also touches on the establishment of initiatives like the North West Coast Living Lab in Ageing and Dementia to strengthen academic-social care practice relationships.
