National Forum on Knowledge Exchange

Events and Reports

National Forum on Knowledge Exchange

In October 2006, the Foundation and its partners hosted a national, inter-organizational dialogue on how they are approaching Knowledge Exchange and how they can better collaborate with and complement each other to accomplish their multiple objectives.

The National Forum on Knowledge Exchange consisted of two days of presentations and discussions centred on the three pillars of Knowledge Exchange:

• dissemination (push);
• research use (pull); and
• knowledge brokering (exchange).

During the second day of the forum, participants were challenged with strategic questions cutting across the silos of the field.

We welcome you to download the presentations that helped make this event a great success.
