Welcome address and introduction to the international symposium "In the Trenches: Research Translation For Health Impact"

PATHWAYS TO IMPACT
Research and Innovation (R&I) impact assessment offers much more than an after-the-fact accounting of outcomes – it is a transformational approach to value co-creation, capture, and communication that sets the stage for successful implementation. You will join experts, peers, and practitioners in an interactive session focused on realizing the full potential of aligning assessment frameworks and research translation for optimal impact.

WHY PARTICIPATE?

  • Increase your understanding of leading approaches, frameworks and tools to optimize impact

  • Contribute to funders’ and researchers’ efforts to advance practice towards an impact “commons”
  • Join this vibrant community of practice through networking in a dynamic inspiring environment

WHO WILL BENEFIT?
Research funders, program managers, researchers, health practitioners, knowledge translators, evaluators, policy-makers and other professionals in the research and innovation system.
