| Annotation | While there is no single definition of co-production, the term implies elements of engagement, participation, choice and control, and involvement. This document considers the policy context within which approaches to co-production are being developed, in particular, in the White Paper, 'Equity and excellence: liberating the NHS', the proposed Public Health White Paper, A Vision for Adult Social Care: Capable Communities and Active Citizens, and the Partnership Agreement between government and the social care sector, 'Think local, act personal'. It highlights different approaches to involving people, including: ensuring diverse groups can participate; collaboration with user-led organisations (ULOs); engaging carers in co-production; working with citizens to create Participatory Budgets; and working with small social enterprises. It summarises legal frameworks that support co-production; and provides examples of where co-production has worked well at different levels of the social care system. It also links closely with other DH briefing papers: 'Practical approaches to improving the lives of disabled and older people through building stronger communities', 'Practical approaches to safeguarding and personalisation', and 'Practical approaches to market and provider development'.
