Allyship in Research:

KHRC’s Allyship in Research Toolkit provides researchers and practitioners with a framework to embed lived and living experience, and allyship, into their work. The toolkit describes ways to incorporate authentic participation into the entire research process or program development process, identifies strategies for engaging in a co-research/con-construction process, and outlines the benefits of practicing in this way. The below video further overviews what allyship means to our team, to our Lived Experience Co-Researchers, and to other local leaders, partners, and stakeholders.
