      3. The family (including children and adolescents) as a setting for mutual and positive involvement
      4. Vulnerable groups as powerful users: The need for a culturally embedded approach
      5. The voice and the impact of the users: Can users increase their impact as a movement instead of an association?
      6. Technology and social media: Potential or barrier for positive involvement?
      7. Clinical research: The value and impact of the involvement of users
      8. The language and the concepts: How do we put involvement into words, so it fits with the 'real world'? Do we need a shared language?
