Translational research projects funded by the Collaborative Centre to improve outcomes across Victoria's mental health and wellbeing system
Translational research involves developing, testing and applying new and enhanced models of care, treatment and support in service delivery environments, with the aim of delivering better experiences and outcomes for consumers, carers, families and supporters.
Ongoing dialogue between researchers, practitioners, consumers and their carers, families, supporters and kin ensures different types of evidence and experience are captured and embedded in the cycles of learning. This includes the experiential knowledge of people with lived and living experiences, practice wisdom from those working in care settings and research insights and evidence from academics and researchers. Collectively we refer to this as ‘transformative evidence’.
