Abstract

During the ECSA 2024 conference, we led discussions to build and share learning on co-creation practices across Europe. These discussions were centred around thought-provoking prompts based on best practices with underrepresented groups, barriers in a local setting, and ensuring legacy. The key takeaways from this discussion are related to building trust, community engagement, and time.
