Key Principles of Student Engagement in Post-Secondary Mental Health Research

Created by the Inlight Student Mental Health Research Initiative, this resource outlines fundamental principles for student engagement in mental health research. Collaborating with postsecondary student advisors and researchers, the Inlight engagement team co-created this set of key principles to enhance student involvement in mental health research within postsecondary contexts.

These core principles are designed to serve as the foundation for research activities involving students as experiential experts. They should be integrated at every stage of the research process, from project design to the dissemination of findings. Researchers are encouraged to work collaboratively with student partners to tailor these principles to their specific projects.
