As Part of Springer Nature’s strategic partnership with The Association of Universities in the Netherlands, Springer Nature has interviewed Prof. Dr. Mai Chin A Paw to learn more about creating social impact through participatory research.
"Essentially, participatory research is all about getting to grips with and truly understanding the lives of the people you’re studying – and taking into account their preferences, needs and wishes. I believe this leads to better quality, more impactful research because it helps us to understand the problems that really need solving. "
