The Canadian Knowledge Mobilization Forum (CKF) is a biennial event that provides opportunities for professional development, learning and networking for those interested in knowledge mobilization, translation, and exchange. It brings together a community dedicated to sharing learnings, best practices, tools, and resources.
CKF22 will be taking place in an online format during the week of June 13-17th 2022. In addition to the national event, we will be hosting regional half-day events in-person across the country. We are seeking partners interested in hosting these events!

- Create a welcoming and engaging event to learn about knowledge mobilization in Canada
- Engage professionals across sectors to enable partnerships, collaboration, and networking
- Share tools and techniques related to knowledge mobilization in a variety of fields
- Facilitate discussions around current and emerging topics in knowledge mobilization
Event Requirements:
