What is integrated knowledge translation?
Integrated knowledge translation (IKT) is a model of research co-production, whereby researchers partner with knowledge users throughout the research process and who can use the research recommendations in practice or policy. IKT approaches are used to improve the relevance and impact of research.
What is a knowledge translation strategy?
Knowledge translation strategies are an approach to increase the use of evidence within policy and practice decision-making contexts. This paper describes the design of and implementation plan for a knowledge translation intervention for public health decision making in local government.
