This is an implementation evaluation of HIPPY being conducted by the Research and Policy Centre within BSL. It is the first study by BSL to examine how the Home Interaction Program for Parents and Youngsters (“HIPPY”) is implemented exclusively within Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. It is really exciting because we’re co-designing the study with all the key stakeholders. First, we’d like to introduce ourselves. I’m Lisa Conley, Research Fellow in the Research and Policy Centre at BSL. I’m a sociologist and qualitative researcher who’s been at BSL since 2018. I’m now managing the HIPPY research that we conduct. |
Image of woman named Rhianna sitting in a room facing camera. | Rhianna: Hello, I’m Rhianna Brickle I am a Pakana woman and a Senior Research Officer in the Research and Policy Centre here at BSL and have joined the RPC from a background in Play Therapy and Early Childhood education. |

We want to know what works well, under what conditions, and for whom. While this study is an evaluation of HIPPY, we want to consider how this research can also influence policy and advocacy. We will be co-designing this study with the HIPPY communities, coordinators, tutors, a First Nations Reference group and HIPPY Steering Committee. We are going to visit 9 HIPPY sites across Australia, hoping to visit one site in each state and territory and within urban, regional and remote areas to showcase the diversity of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities across Australia and the HIPPY network. |

That means we’ll be collecting both qualitative data (things like interviews, story collecting, and observations at sites) and also quantitative data (possibly a survey or something similar to produce some statistics). The qualitative data collection will take place at 9 sites where we will likely do in-depth interviews and participant observation with parents/carers and children, HIPPY tutors, and site coordinators. Rhianna and I aim to collect data for 3-4 days at each location so we’ll be working really closely with the leadership teams and community members at the nine selected sites. For the quantitative data, we might create a survey or some other similar tool to capture new information from all the HIPPY sites, not just the nine fieldwork sites. And since it’s a co-design process- we are open to your ideas on our data collection tools and methods. |

Stock image of two young girls writing on paper at a table. | Christine: So who is co-designing the study with us? We’ll be working with a few groups to create the key elements of the study using a special co-design process. These stakeholders will help us decide on the research questions, methods, ways of collecting data, engagement strategies, and final publications. Two - There’s also the HIPPY working group consisting of HIPPY tutors, site coordinators, and consultants. We will be meeting each month by video chat, or by phone/email if this is more convenient. We understand how difficult it can be to collect data—everyone is pressed for time and the families you work with face many responsibilities that compete for their attention. We would love to hear your ideas on how best to collect the data, which questions are most important to ask, and any other ideas you might have. |

| Rhianna: We also have the 3rd group: The Project Steering Committee composed of eight HIPPY and BSL executive leaders and the three of us as the HIPPY researchers; and finally we will be looking at engaging with interested HIPPY Participants to form a Working Group composed of families who are participating in HIPPY currently, or who have participated in the last three years and who would like to provide feedback either by joining our video meetings or getting in touch by phone/email with the RPC HIPPY Research Team. |
Image of woman named Lisa sitting in a room facing camera. | Lisa: Working together with you to codesign this study will help us ensure we hear the voices of First Nations families and will help deepen the practices of the Home Interaction Program for Parents and Youngsters for communities across Australia. We’re very excited about this study and hope you are too. Thank you for watching and we hope to see you soon! |
