A workshop aimed at building skills in systems thinking and knowledge mobilisation practices to effectively establish a knowledge pathway for their own research. Traditionally, efforts by researchers to inform policy and practice would focus on the publication and dissemination of research findings. But to achieve greater research impact, creating a strategy for the mobilisation of knowledge throughout the research process can be more effective. Knowledge mobilisation seeks to apply a systems approach – both to understand the complexity of the real world, and to adapt and work with that complexity. A systems approach recognises that many problems in policy and practice are complex, dynamic and have a web of interconnected elements. Rather than linear, cause-and effect responses, systems practice has the potential to be more effective in addressing complex problems like chronic disease Knowledge mobilisation requires institutional support for evidence-informed decision making. During this workshop you will learn about the importance of knowledge mobilisation in public health research; stakeholder mapping; developing key messages for stakeholders; and strategies and ideas to disseminate key messages.
