NICE-wide topic prioritisation: the manual

Oversight and engagement

This work was guided by a strategic principles working group, with oversight from the NICE Clinical Directorate. In 2023, the working group met with key internal representatives for each area before holding a series of internal and external engagement events with relevant stakeholders. The external stakeholders engaged included representatives from the voluntary and community sector; patient advocacy groups; professional membership organisations; topic-specific advisory groups, boards and forums; local government; public health, health and social care partners; academia and other arms-length bodies.
