Toolkit on RoIPD
New tools for understanding the Return of Individual Participant Data
The FACILITATE project has developed a series of tools to raise public awareness of issues related to the Return of Individual Participant Data (RoIPD).
These resources focus on RoIPD-related topics such as informed consent, data protection, participant rights, individual data management and RoIPD potential processes. The key concepts are introduced in a practical way, translating the ethical-legal framework developed by the FACILITATE consortium into concrete, accessible, and easily usable informational and training tools.
Educational materials are designed especially to inform participants, but they play a significant role in supporting Patients’ Organizations, Healthcare Professionals, and Research Staff establishing a shared language around data stewardship and participant rights. Through infographics, multimedia tools, a glossary and structured guidance, the toolkit contributes to a culture in which participants are recognized not as passive subjects of research, but as informed partners in a collaborative scientific enterprise.
The training kit is structured as follows:
⦁ A set of visual infographics describing the data management process and providing detailed explanations of the RoIPD processes.
⦁ A series of multimedial videos to facilitate the dissemination of concepts related to the RoIPD
⦁ A plain-language glossary of the most important terms used in RoIPD.
The tools include a set of multilingual materials – Posters, Flyers, and Brochures – also intended for distribution at public institutions – such as hospitals, pharmacies, medical clinics, community centers, patients organizations, etc. – across European countries.
