DC2411 - Knowledge Mobilization with DAC

Registration is required

Are you interested in learning the fundamentals of knowledge mobilization-implementation science (KM-IS) and how these can apply to your research? Would you like to learn how to use a KM planning tool to guide your activities related to disseminating best evidence from your research? This interactive workshop will be an opportunity to build capacity and capability in KM-IS using real research examples ranging from pre-clinical to clinical research. Workshop registrants will be invited to submit their research projects (at any stage) to be used as exemplars during the workshop. The workshop will be presented by the KM-IS Program leads of the Diabetes Action Canada (DAC) research network and will include: (i) a presentation about KM-IS; (ii) how to practice KM-IS, and (iii) a small group activity to apply our KM Planning Tool to create a customized table that outlines a plan to mobilize research results to relevant knowledge users, and which can also be used in a grant submission. Resources and tools to support ongoing learning and actions beyond the session will be provided.
