KTT

Enhance the impact of your research with practical knowledge, skills and tools in these free virtual workshops for students, faculty and staff.

The first session is “knowledge mobilization 101” and future sessions will cover formats like data visualization, infographics and podcasts and engaging with stakeholders working in policy, industry and the community.

The series is a collaboration among the Ontario Agri-Food Innovation Alliance, Community Engaged Scholarship Institute (CESI) and Research Innovation Office.

Join us for a two-and-a-half hour event to build capacity around Knowledge Translation and Transfer and mobilizing knowledge to achieve impact in Ontario’s agri-food sector and rural communities. The first hour of the event will feature our keynote speaker with the second hour-and-a-half profiling current Alliance-funded 'KTT Mobilization' and 'Mobilization Initiatives' projects by U of G researchers. Register here.

The Alliance hosted four virtual sessions during the fall/winter of 2020/21 that demonstrated how Ontario's agricultural research centres provide a platform for innovative research and collaboration that benefits Ontario’s agri-food sector.

This virtual event will profile innovative technology and commercialization activities funded through the Gryphon's Leading to the Accelerated Adoption of Innovative Research (GLAAIR) program.
