Workshop: Research to Policy Impact: Strategies for Translating Findings into Policy Messages

How can researchers best prepare an engagement plan to connect their work with policymakers and decision-makers? And how can research outcomes be translated into compelling policy recommendations?

To help researchers answer these key questions, this interactive half-day workshop enables participants to develop effective strategies for research promotion and real policy influence.

Participants will learn to design early-stage stakeholder engagement plans to share research findings with policymakers and other influential groups. Through small-group collaboration and hands-on activities, attendees will focus on successfully converting academic insights into actionable evidence to better inform policy decisions.
