Involve Australia, coordinated by Australian Genomics, has engaged with the public to develop community involvement guidelines for genomic researchers. The project partnered with patient support and advocacy groups, patients and carers, people who involve community in their research, interested members of the public, genomic researchers and healthcare professionals.
The project investigated the public and community involvement landscape in Australian healthcare research and used existing resources to aid the development of guidelines specifically for genomic research.

Involve Australia’s Guidelines for Community Involvement in Genomic Research aim to provide genomic researchers in Australia with practical information for involving community members effectively and meaningfully in research projects. Genomic research brings with it complex ethical, legal and social implications, which benefits from the lens of lived experience to facilitate equitable and responsible implementation.
