The following information on 'knowledge brokering' came via KUUC's e-watch
on innovation in health services. The report on Ontario workshops with
nurses has some very interesting ideas, discussion and suggestions for
action. This year's workshop is in Halifax on October 24th (see below).

According to the Canadian Health Services Research Foundation Knowledge
Brokering Project:
[from http://www.fcrss.ca/brokering/index_e.php]
"Knowledge brokering links decision makers and researchers, facilitating
their interaction so that they are able to better understand each other's
goals and professional cultures, influence each other's work, forge new
partnerships, and promote the use of research-based evidence in
decision-making.... Knowledge brokering in this context is ultimately
about increasing evidence-based decision-making in the organization,
management, and delivery of health services."


Speaking with one Voice: A Report on the Knowledge Brokering Workshops for
the Ontario Nursing Community

In late March 2005, the Canadian Health Services Research Foundation (CHSRF)
hosted two one-day workshops for Ontario nurses on the topic of knowledge
brokering. (see http://www.fcrss.ca/brokering/index_e.php for CHSRF
knowledge brokering project description)
Funded by the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care’s Nursing
Secretariat, the workshops in Kingston and London brought together almost
80
nurses of all types — clinicians, public health nurses, researchers,
educators, nurse practitioners, students, decision makers, and knowledge
brokers. During the workshops, the participants learned a bit about the
foundation’s philosophy of knowledge brokering and then, the participants
taught the foundation what knowledge brokering means to the nursing
profession — what they need to be able to do it and why it’s important.
This report presents a synthesis of what was said during the two
workshops.
