Co-creation, co-design, co-production for public health – a perspective on definitions and distinctions
Co-creation, co-design, co-production for public health – a perspective on definitions and distinctions
The terms co-creation, co-design, and co-production are often used interchangeably when describing initiatives involving multiple stakeholders. Although they share similarities, there are important differences, especially in the context of public health, regarding the roles and level of engagement of stakeholders and when they are involved. this article summarizes these similarities and differences by drawing from various fields such as public administration, governance, service management, design, marketing, and public health.

The article describes the co-production model it uses, the benefits, challenges, achievements and areas for learning and improvement.
Expectations versus reality: the sustainability of co-production approaches over time
Expectations versus reality: the sustainability of co-production approaches over time
This study examines the collaboration between practitioners and service users in two programs over time, identifying the factors that contribute to or hinder the long-term sustainability of co-production. There is no single approach that guarantees sustainable co-production; it depends on the specific service and its operating environment. Sustainable co-production relies on four key elements: structure, skills, resources, and mutual commitment. The structure should effectively utilize available resources and skills to foster the ongoing commitment of both service users and professionals to continue collaborating.

A co-produced method to involve service users in research: the SUCCESS model
A co-produced method to involve service users in research: the SUCCESS model
Although co-production is recommended when involving people in research, methods for involving people are usually designed and managed by researchers and there is little evidence about methods to co-produce models for effective public and patient involvement. We report the method used by a group of patient and carer service users to develop and implement a model for involving public members in research.
Coproduction and partnership with people and communities
Coproduction and partnership with people and communities
Coproduction with people and communities needs to be part of a radical change in healthcare leadership and management, away from doing things ‘to’ or even ‘for’ people and towards a new model of leading ‘with’ others, putting people and neighbourhoods at the heart of a new systems leadership, focussing on what really matters.

Values and value in patient and public involvement: moving beyond methods
Values and value in patient and public involvement: moving beyond methods
The authors of this paper outline that Patient and public involvement (PPI) in research has evolved over recent years, yet it often remains an ‘optional extra’ and, in some cases, tokenistic. Discussions are often focused on processes and methods, and are yet to make Patient and public involvement the norm; the authors argue that the conversation needs to change to one of ‘value’: a culture of common values and principles across all types of research.
