Aim and content This course is free of charge for PhD students at Danish universities (except Copenhagen Business School), and for PhD Students from NorDoc member faculties. All other participants must pay the course fee. Anyone can apply for the course, but if you are not a PhD student at a Danish university, you will be placed on the waiting list until enrollment deadline. This also applies to PhD students from NorDoc member faculties. After the enrollment deadline, available seats will be allocated to applicants on the waiting list. Learning objectives A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to: 1. Know the relevance and benefits of working across sectors and involving partners from various sectors and organizations and engage in theoretical considerations about research design 2. Understand the research process from project development and planning, conduct and management to implementation and evaluation 3. Use acquired knowledge to put own research into perspective Content Collaboration across healthcare sectors – between the somatic and the mental hospital, municipalities, and general practice – is important because the complexity of health determinants makes it difficult for one institution to deal with all public health problems. To improve and strengthen health promotion and integrated care and at the same time reduce social inequality and the burden of chronic disease, intersectoral health research is of great significance. The purpose of the PhD course is to provide the knowledge and tools required to plan, complete, and evaluate research projects that span across different healthcare sectors and organizations. The course will follow the steps of conducting intersectoral research projects, including choosing a research design, data security and data processing agreements, involvement and collaboration with partners and stakeholders from different sectors and organisations, co-creation, project management, evaluation design, and implementation of results after the project. The course is based on Danish legislation and the Danish healthcare system. Participants will be provided with practical examples of key stages in the research process and will be presented with different approaches to intersectoral research and hands-on experiences with developing and conducting actual research projects involving partners from different healthcare sectors and organizations, volunteers, and informal caregivers. Pre course: At registration participants must provide information about their date of enrolment and expected date of submission of the thesis as well as a one-page description of the problem and empirical foundation of their intersectoral research project. This will enable the lecturers to divide the participants in relevant groups. Each participant must prepare a mini presentation of a project that will be discussed with a group of participants and teachers in sparring sessions on day 1, 2 or 3. Day 1: Get started with your intersectoral research project Day 2: How to manage and complete an intersectoral research project Day 3: Implementation and evaluation of intersectoral research projects Participants PhD students and other post-graduate planning to conduct intersectoral research in the health and medical fields involving - several sectors of the health system (hospitals, municipalities, and general practice) - one health sector and one or more private companies, NGOs, volunteers, informal caregivers, or the civil society. Relevance to graduate programmes The course is relevant to PhD students from the following graduate programmes at the Graduate School of Health and Medical Sciences, UCPH: Public Health and Epidemiology Psychiatry Medicine, Culture and Society Language English (Danish, if all participants are Danish speaking) Form A combination of lectures, discussion, homework, and group sessions Course director Lotte Broberg, Associate Professor Department of Clinical Medicine, Midwife, PhD.
