Knowledge Mobilization, Research and Research Impact
Knowledge Mobilization supports progressing research from inception to impact by supporting engaged research and collaboration between community and campus. It helps make research useful to society by disseminating findings, facilitating uptake and implementation of research, and co-producing research with end users. At York University, the Knowledge Mobilization Unit brokers research partnerships, supports events and capacity building, and provides grant support to facilitate knowledge mobilization and research impact.
