Abstract
The purpose for this workshop is to present and have a discussion on how much we have achieved on the area service user involvement in research, development and innovation in the field of integrated mental health and addiction services.
There are still a way to go before we can truly state that we have co-creation and co-production. We will present how we have done it on a research and mission-oriented innovation project about a integrated service model for people with concurrent severe mental illness (SMI) and substance use disorder (SUD) - INNOFACT.
Lessons learned, other experiences will be presented, and we will have a discussion in this regard that is also going on in Norway.
