Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the authors, I would like to share that the journal Public Health has published an article entitled, "Exploratory study of the role of knowledge brokers in translating knowledge to action following global maternal and newborn health technical meetings." The article reports on a study of participants in maternal and newborn health technical meetings held in Bangladesh in 2012 and South Africa in 2013.

Highlights of the article include:


*         Engagement of technical meeting participants before, during, and after a meeting is needed to translate knowledge.

*         Findings suggest that most respondents saw themselves as knowledge brokers driving knowledge translation in their countries.

*         Meeting participants who view their role as knowledge brokers serve an important function in translating knowledge to action.

*         Supporting knowledge brokers in adapting knowledge to local context is promising for improving health policy and practice.
