It is widely accepted that research can lead to improved health outcomes. However, translating into meaningful impacts in peoples' lives requires actions stretch well beyond those traditionally associated with knowledge creation. The reported this manuscript provides an international review of funders' efforts encourage process uptake, application and scaling, often referred as translation.We conducted web-site review, document key informant interviews investigate translation at 26 funding...
Abstract Background Co-production is an umbrella term used to describe the process of generating knowledge through partnerships between researchers and those who will use or benefit from research. Multiple advantages research co-production have been hypothesized, in some cases documented, both academic practice record. However, there are significant gaps understanding how evaluate quality co-production. This gap rigorous evaluation undermines potential co-producers. Methods tests relevance...
The Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) has defined knowledge translation (KT) as a dynamic and iterative process that includes the synthesis, dissemination, exchange, ethically-sound application to improve health Canadians, provide more effective services products, strengthen healthcare system. CIHR, national research funding agency in Canada, undertaken advance this concept through direct opportunities KT. Because CIHR is recognized within Canada internationally for leading...
Background Never before COVID-19 had Canadians faced making health-related decisions in a context of significant uncertainty. However, little is known about which type and the types difficulties that they faced. Objective We sought to identify decisional needs Canadians. Methods Our study was codesigned by researchers knowledge users (eg, patients, clinicians). Informed CHERRIES (the Checklist for Reporting Results Internet E-Surveys) reporting guideline, we conducted 2 online surveys random...
Research that better aligns policy, practice, and research communities is gaining momentum around the world. This includes engaged strategies bring partners, their diverse perspectives kinds of knowledge, together to shape agendas with on-the-ground-needs create dynamic problem-solving processes. These approaches aim generate more equitable effective solutions societal challenges. Although many these partnered have a longstanding history, entrenched cultures, practices, institutional...
High-quality, use-oriented, and well-communicated research can improve social outcomes in low- middle-income countries and, by doing so, accelerate development progress. We provide a meta-analysis of supported Canada's International Development Research Centre. use large unique data set that comprises 170 studies undertaken over the period 2010–2015. The examined spans multiple disciplines natural sciences was conducted across globe, with majority Africa, Asia, Latin America, Caribbean,...
Research co-production is an umbrella term used to describe research users and researchers working together generate knowledge. create knowledge that relevant current challenges increase uptake of into practice, programs, products, and/or policy. Yet, rigorous theories methods assess the quality are limited. Here we a framework for assessing co-production-Research Quality Plus Co-Production (RQ+ 4 Co-Pro)-and outline our field test this approach.Using approach, aim relevance utility RQ+...
Objective In this study, Argentine health researchers were surveyed regarding their perceptions of facilitators and barriers to evidence-based policymaking in Argentina, as well publication activities, research environment satisfaction. Methods A self-administered online survey was sent Argentina. The questions based on a preceding qualitative study researchers, the scientific literature. Results Of 647 that reached, 226 accessed survey, for response rate 34.9%. Over 80% had never been...
Abstract Background There is a growing interest in scaling effective health innovations to promote equitable access high-quality services worldwide. However, multiple challenges persist innovations. In this study, we aim summarize the evidence and social care literature identify current knowledge gaps. Methods We will conduct living umbrella review according Joanna Briggs Institute Reviewers’ Manual. consider all syntheses addressing or (e.g., any setting, clinical area) conducted systematic...
<sec> <title>BACKGROUND</title> Background: Goals for ending the HIV epidemic prioritize implementation of trauma-informed care (TIC), an operating paradigm fostering multi-level resilience and empowerment. However, a dearth literature explores strategies collaboratively conducting TIC implementation. Research co-production could be effective strategy facilitating collaborative adoption, but formative research is needed to explore this potential. </sec> <title>OBJECTIVE</title> Objective: We...
Background Scaling effective primary care innovations to benefit more people is of interest decision makers. However, we know little about how promising are being scaled “spontaneously,” that is, without deliberate guidance. Objective We aim observe, document, and analyze how, in real-life conditions, 1 innovation spontaneously scales up across Quebec, Canada. Methods will conduct a participative study using descriptive single-case study. It be guided by the McLean Gargani principles for...

Abstract: Practitioners and theorists have documented the benefits of user engagement participation in evaluation and, at same time, value neutral impartial evaluative evidence. Yet producing both an independent inclusive is a leading challenge our field. In this practice note, we present one solution. We describe design governance structure that was used to find balance between these two themes. also identify key elements experience for adaptation by others, given appropriate tailoring. as...
