English Several changes have posed increasing challenges for the active dissemination of research within the policy world: the evidence-based policy-making movement has led to a demand for the implications of research to be spelt out; rapid technological changes have offered new electronic methods for bringing research to the attention of policy makers, but have also created information overload; while modernisation of the policy process has led to an emphasis on outcomes and demonstrable effectiveness. This article provides a critique of three models of research dissemination; it concludes with some innovative examples and identifies key resources for planning and developing an active dissemination strategy
