Knowledge Exchange
Knowledge Exchange (KE) is a key component of the Collaborative Research Grant Initiative (CRGI) and it has been incorporated throughout this initiative via:
Workshops
- Information and Project Development workshops designed to build the capacity of participants to develop research proposals and identify issues related to research ethics. Read more about the workshops.
Tools
- A set of worksheets for CRGI grant and studentship recipients designed to help plan Knowledge Exchange activities throughout a research project were shared with these researchers and distributed at various events. They are available here. See other knowledge exchange tools developed in the Alberta Addiction and Mental Health Research Partnership Program here.
