Building Communities and Health Systems
Published On: 8th October 2026
Building on the insights from Reimagining Research, this interactive resource explores the unexpected ways community-led research can influence health systems and services. Through an interactive map and audio clips drawn from interviews with contributors connected to The Ideas Fund and beyond, it explores how impact emerges through relationships, collaboration and shared learning, rather than through linear or predetermined outcomes.
Contributors describe how community-led research can shape health systems through increased confidence, legitimacy, education, evidence-building and practical tools, as well as through the connections formed between communities and researchers.
