Translating Research into
Policy and Practice
Today's researchers understand it's no longer good enough to
do the research, write up the results and present them at a
conference of like-minded peers. You have to get your work out
of the ivory tower and into the hands and minds of those who
will use it to shape emerging policies and practices. What's
more, the increasing speed of global change means this process
of knowledge translation, transfer or exchange has to happen
quickly and continuously so that research can be used before
its shelf life expires.
During this two-day workshop, you will find out how to
collaborate with stakeholders, policymakers and practitioners
to build their considerations into your research program
before you even begin. You will learn how to develop
comprehensive dissemination strategies and plain language
communication products to position your findings for the
greatest impact. You will move beyond the “publish or perish”
tradition toward fostering the relationships and networks
often required to develop cross-sectoral solutions to multifaceted
problems. And you will begin to see how the feedback
gathered from partners will help ensure your research remains
relevant over time.
Audience
Researchers, academics, knowledge brokers or anyone involved
in research they hope will influence the direction of policy and
practice in their respective field (health science, social science,
environmental science, etc)
