The NIHR Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) team are pleased to invite you to our fourth webinar in the PPIE/CEI Bidirectional Learning Series “From Global to Local: Enhancing the UK Healthcare System with Lessons from CEI in LMICs”.
Date: 10th February 2026
Time: 3.00–4.00 PM GMT, London UK (Online via zoom)
Join us to explore how Community Engagement and Involvement (CEI) approaches developed in Low and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) are actively shaping health research and service delivery in the UK. This session will demonstrate how global CEI principles —collaboration, equity, and shared learning - can be translated into local action to build trust and create more responsive healthcare systems.
What you will hear about:
- Global to local CEI strategies: Insights into how CEI strategies from LMICs can be used to strengthen community relationships and healthcare practice in the UK.
- Driving Innovation through Reciprocity: Discover how a "virtuous circle of learning" between global and local systems enriches inclusion and equity.
- Translate Insight into Action: Practical examples and expert perspectives on turning global health CEI approaches into practical, equitable healthcare solutions within the NHS.
Speakers include:
- Farrah Lunat (Research Operations Manager at Lancashire & South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust and Joint Lead Author of the NIHR ROSHNI-2 study)
- Professor Nusrat Husain (Professor of Psychiatry and Director of Global Health at the University of Manchester and NIHR Senior Investigator)
- Dr. Matthew Harris (Clinical Senior Lecturer in Public Health at Imperial College London and Honorary Consultant in Public Health Medicine)
