Consensus Validation of a CALD Advisory Panel Implementation Framework Using a Modified Delphi Method

This project involves a Modified Delphi study to refine and validate a CALD Advisory Panel Implementation Framework designed to guide culturally safe, equitable, and operationally robust community advisory panel structures in culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) research contexts. The framework was developed through a scoping-informed best-fit framework synthesis integrating Indigenous governance models, cross-cultural research frameworks, multicultural health research practices, and inclusive patient and public involvement literature This Delphi study will establish multi-sector expert consensus on core components, operational clarity, and implementation priorities through 2–3 iterative rounds of structured rating and feedback.
