Linking Research Findings and Decision Makers: Insights and Recommendations From a Wildfire Study
Transformation of research findings into relevant policies and programs is a principle for ensuring the creation of usable science. One way of achieving this is to employ knowledge translation to disseminate findings between researchers and end users. In this article the process of achieving integrated knowledge translation (iKT) is discussed based upon our experiences conducting a study examining the human impacts of a wildfire. Reflections abou…
