Knowledge Mobilization is an emerging tool kit for research services. Similar to our technology transfer offices and UILOs knowledge mobilization can assist in the development and execution of partnership strategies that support large scale policy and practice relevant grant applications (mainly, but not exclusively from the social sciences and humanities). This session will feature videos of knowledge mobilization projects housed at Memorial, UQAM, York, U Saskatchewan and UVic. The videos will present the faculty perspective and the panel members will present the research and KM support service perspective.
