02Areas

Areas for collaboration

• Education and schools

  Host or develop an age-appropriate prevention session, use approved learning material, provide structured feedback or explore a wider school programme.

• Community activity

  Bring learning into a community setting, help KCK understand a local audience or support suitable distribution and discussion of approved material.

• Clinical, scientific and education review

  Contribute named expertise to a defined page, resource, video or project. The exact scope and version reviewed must be recorded.

• Creative work

  Develop writing, illustration, design, animation, video or accessible formats while preserving the approved health meaning and agreed rights.

• Translation and cultural adaptation

  Adapt approved material for another language or setting. Translation requires review of medical meaning, reading level, examples, images and local official guidance.

• Research and evaluation

  Discuss a research question, methodology, evaluation or institutional contribution within clear governance, data and public-communication boundaries.

• Practical and financial support

  Offer suitable services, materials, funding or operational help without controlling KCK’s medical conclusions or public-benefit decisions.
