Co-production of Instruction: Engaging Learners and People with Lived Experience

The Fika Crew talk with Sophie Soklaridis, PhD and Holly Harris, MA from the Centre for Addiction & Mental Health affiliated with the University of Toronto and the Collaborative Learning College  about their work using "different knowledges" to co-produce instruction and a research agenda.  How might pharmacy education co-produce instruction drawing upon the "different knowledges" of our students, the patients we service, and the stakeholders who are the benefactors of the work of pharmacists?
