Co‐creation is the development of a “shared body of usable knowledge” across scientific, governance, and local practice boundaries (Kerkhoff & Lebel, 2015). In implementation science, co-creation involves the shared development of key partnerships designed to fully deliver a program/practice as designed by the developer for desired population benefits.
