Creating a knowledge mobilization strategy
Addresses objectives: R3C Increase partnerships with public and not-for-profit sectors for policy development
Waterloo has begun work on an institutional research knowledge mobilization strategy. It is an effort to engage with government and the public sector more effectively around policy issues, creating links between new knowledge and affecting change. A priority of this initiative is to increase partnerships with private and public sector organizations to support how research outcomes are translated into action with government and not-for-profit sectors. In 2021-2022, the Office of Research completed a review and analysis of existing industry partners to identify risks, opportunities, and potential sectors for this work.
