This project (named Reinvent) aimed to promote Public Involvement (PI) in health research. Academics worked with a community group, the Eloquent Praise & Empowerment Dance Company, to develop a community partnership with young people from Black African, Asian and Caribbean heritage communities. The goal of this paper is to evaluate the Reinvent project for key learnings on how to engage and build partnerships with young people from Black African, Asian and Caribbean heritage communities. Reinvent developed a steering group which consisted of five young people, one academic, a Race Equality Ambassador and the Director of Eloquent. The steering group co-produced an agenda for two workshops and the evaluation tools used. The content of the workshops included drama exercises, discussions on physical and mental health, nutrition and school-life, short introductions to the concepts of research and PI, and group work to critique and improve a video currently used to promote PI in health research to young people. The evaluation tools included using the ‘Cube’ evaluation framework, video-blogging and collecting anonymous feedback. Findings The responses to the ‘Cube’ evaluation framework were positive across all four domains (agenda, voice, contribute change) in both workshops. A few of the young people described having a better understanding of the meaning and practice of PI in a video-blog. The anonymous feedback suggested that the workshops had increased young people’s confidence in sharing their thoughts and opinions about health and PI. Reinvent has shown that academic institutions and young people from an under-served community can partner to co-design workshops and apply evaluation tools. Working with young people in an environment in which they were comfortable, and by researchers joining in with the activities that the young people enjoyed (such as dance), enabled more informal and open conversations to develop. More work is needed to build upon this project so that young people can feel confident and supported to get involved in PI activities relating to research. What were the aims of this project? This project (named Reinvent) involved researchers working with the Eloquent Praise & Empowerment Dance Company to develop a partnership with young people from Black African, Asian and Caribbean heritage communities. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the Reinvent project for key learnings on how to engage with young people from Black African, Asian and Caribbean heritage communities in public involvement activities for research. How did we do this project? To plan the project we had a steering group with membership from young people from the dance company working alongside researchers. The steering group worked together to plan two workshops and agreed the tools to evaluate them. The content of the workshops included drama exercises, discussions on health, nutrition and school-life, short introductions to research and Public Involvement (PI) and group work to consider and improve a video promoting PI. The evaluation tools included answering four questions, video-blogging and collecting anonymous feedback using a post-box. What did we learn? The responses to the ‘Cube’ evaluation framework were positive across all four domains (agenda, voice, contribute change). A few of the young people described having a better understanding of the meaning and practice of PI in a video-blog. The anonymous feedback suggested that the workshops had increased young people’s confidence in sharing their thoughts and opinions about health and PI.

对学术机构与具有非洲黑人、亚洲和加勒比血统的年轻人之间的公共伙伴关系项目的评估

该项目（名为 Reinvent）旨在促进公众参与健康研究。学者们与社区团体 Eloquent Praise & Empowerment Dance Company 合作，与来自非洲黑人、亚洲和加勒比传统社区的年轻人建立社区伙伴关系。本文的目的是评估“重塑”项目，以获取有关如何与非洲黑人、亚洲和加勒比传统社区的年轻人互动并建立伙伴关系的关键知识。Reinvent 成立了一个指导小组，由五名年轻人、一名学者、一名种族平等大使和 Eloquent 总监组成。指导小组共同制定了两次研讨会的议程和所使用的评估工具。研讨会的内容包括戏剧练习、关于身心健康、营养和学校生活的讨论、对研究和 PI 概念的简短介绍，以及批评和改进目前用于在健康研究中推广 PI 的视频的小组工作。年轻人。评估工具包括使用“Cube”评估框架、视频博客和收集匿名反馈。结果 两次研讨会的所有四个领域（议程、声音、贡献变革）对“立方体”评估框架的反应都是积极的。一些年轻人在视频博客中描述了对 PI 的含义和实践有了更好的理解。匿名反馈表明，研讨会增强了年轻人分享关于健康和PI的想法和意见的信心。Reinvent 表明，学术机构和来自服务不足社区的年轻人可以合作共同设计研讨会并应用评估工具。在年轻人感到舒适的环境中与他们一起工作，并通过研究人员参与年轻人喜欢的活动（例如舞蹈），使更多非正式和开放的对话得以发展。需要在该项目的基础上开展更多工作，以便年轻人能够有信心并得到支持，参与与研究相关的 PI 活动。该项目的目标是什么？该项目（名为 Reinvent）涉及研究人员与 Eloquent Praise & Empowerment Dance Company 合作，与来自非洲黑人、亚洲和加勒比传统社区的年轻人建立伙伴关系。本文的目的是评估“重塑”项目，以获取关于如何让来自非洲黑人、亚洲和加勒比遗产社区的年轻人参与公共参与研究活动的关键知识。我们是如何做这个项目的？为了规划这个项目，我们成立了一个指导小组，成员来自舞蹈团的年轻人，与研究人员一起工作。指导小组共同计划了两次研讨会，并商定了评估它们的工具。工作坊的内容包括戏剧练习、有关健康、营养和学校生活的讨论、对研究和公众参与 (PI) 的简短介绍，以及考虑和改进宣传 PI 的视频的小组工作。评估工具包括回答四个问题、视频博客和使用邮箱收集匿名反馈。我们学到了什么？所有四个领域（议程、声音、贡献变革）对“立方体”评估框架的反应都是积极的。一些年轻人在视频博客中描述了对 PI 的含义和实践有了更好的理解。匿名反馈表明，研讨会增强了年轻人分享关于健康和PI的想法和意见的信心。
