LeedsACTS! and Leeds Community Anchor Network hosted an event back in October, to explore ways that academics might collaborate with community anchor organisations in the future.

There was a huge amount of insight gathered through the event, which has been summarised in a report for wider sharing. Key questions included:

• How can we think about the ethics of our research in a way that is accessible and proportionate?
• How can we present research in a way that works for academics and for communities?
• How can we use language to highlight the wisdom communities that hold?
• How can we show communities that we value their expertise?
• How can we plan for the unexpected and build it into our timelines?
