RECAP Modules

We are asking all attendees to go through RECAP's learning modules prior to the day of the event. The three modules take approximately 30 minutes each, for a total of 1.5 hours. The modules will help establish a common understanding and language related to research partnerships, the roles individuals can play, and ways to overcome power differentials when contributing or learning about multi-sectorial expertise, lived experience, and critical perspectives.

To ensure a successful event, we are seeking to confirm your attendance for the event, as well as committing to going through the learning modules beforehand. Please register by August 15, 2024.
