Patients and professionals working together to coproduce health

ICoHN is a collaborative learning system to support existing and new communities of practice, with an overarching goal of improving health. This network has three aims: 

  1. to discover and explore the meaning and application of the idea of service coproduction in diverse sectors of the social and health system,
  2. to pilot these emerging insights in real professional development, research, service and community settings, and
  3. to share lessons learned to promote “cross-­fertilization” and further dissemination of improvements and innovations

Podcasts

ICoHN is committed to sharing lessons learned and to disseminating improvements and innovation, now also in podcast format.

The Power of Coproduction is the first podcast series produced by the network: Paul Batalden discusses health care services and how to achieve better health through mutual respect, collaboration, and science-informed practices with a host of international guests.
