This casebook builds on results of a meeting hosted by CIHR in 2010. One of its principal recommendations was that examples of citizen engagement in health care
across Canada should be documented and shared. The casebook includes national, provincial, regional and local examples of meaningful citizen engagement in decisions around health services.
