Co-Designing Findings with Dr Francesca Perugia

Co-Designing Findings: Methodological Reflections on Policy Engagement as a Research Practice

This seminar draws on Dr Francesca Perugia's ongoing research into housing vulnerability and resilience in the context of climate change and natural disasters to examine the role of policy engagement as a methodological tool. At the heart of this approach is the use of engagement not only to inform research but also to foster mutual learning between researchers, policymakers, and actors. By reflecting on how collaboration with institutional actors has shaped both the research process and its outcomes, the presentation invites participants to reflect on their own engagement practices and consider how policy engagement is or can be embedded into research design to enhance collaboration and impact.

19 September 2025 @ 12.00pm-1.30pm | Joondalup Campus Room 34.402 | RSVP to CPPP@ecu.edu.au
