Abstract: The aim of this paper is to describe a research process of actively engaging stakeholders using co-design in the development of interprofessional education and a health intervention program targeting stroke prevention. Stakeholders included potential patients, healthcare professionals, and healthcare experts/researchers. Collaborating through co-design can be utilized in developing primary healthcare interventions including educational strategies for interprofessional learning. In this paper, an intervention in primary healthcare (Make My Day) will be used to illustrate how co-design was applied, partly as a method for developing educational resources together with stakeholders, and partly by engaging interprofessional healthcare teams in adapting intervention materials to address the needs of groups more specifically at risk of stroke in local contexts. There is a need to actively involve stakeholders, build on user experiences, and integrate interprofessional knowledge in the design and evaluation of health interventions. However, there is a lack of detailed accounts about how this can be accomplished. This study illustrates collaborative research process components and thus contributes with knowledge about how co-design methods can be applied in health intervention design as well as in interprofessional education within primary healthcare settings.
