Call for People with Lived Experience of Depression
We’re inviting applications from individuals with lived experience of depression to join the EU-PEARLDIVER's Lived Experience (LE) Board. EU-PEARLDIVER is a multinational European platform trial working to improve treatments for depression. Lived Experience has been embedded deep into the design as well as the execution of the Trial; LE Board members will actively shape decisions, influence the direction of the trial, and ensure it stays grounded in real experiences.
We welcome people from all backgrounds – whether your experience is personal, as a carer, or both. We are trying to bring together a group that reflects a wide range of perspectives and backgrounds, including people who may not usually see themselves represented in research spaces. The trial will initially be launched in Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, Spain, Italy, and the UK. Right now, the LE Board application process is focused but not limited to these countries.
• The Board meets four times a year.
• Members are compensated for their time.
• The LE Board will be led by lived experience experts.
• The working language of the LE Board is English.
Completed forms must be submitted by email. Instructions are included in the form.
Applications are open until May 31.
Please feel free to share the call with your network!
