Research Coproduction: How Can Coproduction Teams Increase Traffic on the Pathway to Impact? Comment on "Research Coproduction: An Underused Pathway to Impact".

The editorial by Rycroft-Malone and colleagues , explores the challenges and opportunities of coproduction to deliver research with impact. We, apply our experience as coproducers of research to present strategies that may accelerate uptake and increase traffic on the road to research impact. In doing so, we emphasise the importance of consistent terminology around coproduction, reporting impact metrics, diversity in research partnerships, and the careful consideration of researcher partners. Further, our commentary suggests practical strategies for teams to align their work with the principles of coproduction, and opportunities to support systems-level change to facilitate coproduction.
