SFU Knowledge Mobilization Hub Year Two Highlights

SFU's Knowledge Mobilization Hub aims to grow a culture of knowledge mobilization (KM) at SFU and contribute to SFU being recognized as a world leader in KM. Year two of the SFU KM Hub has been all about inspiring action and building capacity for KM at SFU through collaborations, instruction, and pre and post award supports. This two-page report provides a snapshot of the key achievements and milestones from October 2020 to September 2021. It outlines five initiatives: the launch of the Knowledge Mobilizers story series; SFU's membership in Research Impact Canada; the start of the SFU Research Impact Work Group; the Research Meets Policy @ SFU summer institute; and finally, a SSHRC grant awarded to the KM Hub. As in Year One, this report highlights three core areas of focus: consultations for KM support & navigation; capacity building training & events; and recognition efforts to highlight SFU mobilizers. The report also documents the number of stakeholders engaged, participants who attended KM workshops, and the amount of funding awarded to proposals supported by the KM Hub over the past year.
