Clinical Trial Ambassador
School Education Project
Clinical Trial Ambassador Project
This is a social co-creation project aimed at enhancing understanding of pharmaceutical development in collaboration with patients and the public, and fostering an environment that improves access to clinical trials. It represents an open innovation initiative in patient and public involvement (PPI) in drug development, where companies, researchers, healthcare professionals, and patient organizations work together to train clinical trial ambassadors and engage in collaborative activities.
The core program of this project, the “Clinical Trial Ambassador Training,” is open to anyone who wishes to deepen their understanding of pharmaceutical development and clinical trials. Since 2025, participation has expanded beyond patients, family members, caregivers, and patient organizations to include healthcare professionals, researchers, and industry representatives, creating a space for cross-sector learning and dialogue.
Graduates of the program (Clinical Trial Ambassadors) also take on roles as lecturers and tutors.
