Community participatory approaches in infectious disease dynamic transmission modelling: a scoping review protocol.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Community participatory modelling merges participatory research approaches with mathematical modelling. Participatory approaches are grounded in the engagement of people with lived experience (eg, who are affected by the health condition under study) throughout the research process. Mathematical modelling of infectious disease (ID) dynamic transmissions is increasingly used as a tool for public health decision-making, generating predictions, inferring mechanisms and estimating the impact of potential interventions-all of which guide policies, strategies and resource allocation as part of the preparation and response to ID epidemics. However, little is known about the engagement of people with lived experience and affected communities in the ID modelling process. We wil
