February 1, 2024
Mindgardens events MindLabs events

Overview of the workshop

A series of ‘ethical challenges’, working example will be presented which will identify the strengths, challenges and potential options researchers may explore. This exercise will help to explain that there are no ‘black and white’ answers to the ethical challenges, but there are core principles that researchers need to keep in mind (linked back to the principles of safely involving people with lived experience outlined above). Participants will also be encouraged to share the challenges they have faced in relation to these issues and solutions they have developed, as well as any other challenges they have encountered.

This workshop is strictly for employees and staff of Mindgardens member organisations: South Eastern Sydney Local Health District, Black Dog Institute, NeuRA and UNSW.
