Strengthen and expand collaboration
We will work across disciplines on the island of Ireland to extend collaboration including internationally in areas of common interest that can improve the quality of life and death for people with palliative care needs.
Create an academic–clinical environment to foster innovation
We will act to improve the effectiveness of multidisciplinary academic-clinical studies to answer the most important questions by building academic-clinical capability and support structures to foster innovation.
Develop palliative care researchers and support career paths
We will support members to become recognised experts and leaders in palliative care by securing investment, mentoring, structured training, brokering involvement in national/international studies and supporting career paths.
Involve people with life-limiting conditions, family carers, and communities across research cycle
We will grow the level of involvement of people with life-limiting conditions, family carers, and interested citizens across all stages of decision making in palliative care research and evaluate their impact.
Maximise research impact on practice and policy
We will address practice and policy priorities by co-producing and mobilising research evidence with health and social care professionals, palliative care providers, commissioners, policy makers, people with life-limiting conditions and family carers.
