Among the attendees were the Knowledge Mobilization (KM) Units from York University and the University of Victoria, which form a dynamic group of knowledge brokers who have been collaborating on ResearchImpact, Canada\u2019s emerging KM network.<br \/>\n\u201cIt\u2019s an exciting initiative and the first of its kind in Canada,\u201d said David Phipps, Director of the Office of Research Services (ORS) at York and the leader of York\u2019s KM Unit. \u201cResearchImpact is a national network of knowledge brokers who draw together academics, policymakers, and practitioners, along with government and community agencies from across the country.\u201d The goal of ResearchImpact is to enhance the use of research and help inform public policy and professional practice.<br \/>\nPhipps, an invited speaker at Congress, gave a talk on how knowledge flows between researchers and knowledge users. He was also invited to a closed session on capturing the impacts of publicly funded research. This session was led by SSHRC representatives and featured nationally recognized leaders in KM.<br \/>\nThe KM Units from York and UVic also hosted a booth at the book fair, a mainstay of Congress. With 10,000 academics estimated to be in attendance, there were plenty of opportunities to expand the growing ResearchImpact network.<br \/>\n\u201cIt was a pleasure to speak with many prominent researchers \u2013 from York and elsewhere \u2013 who dropped by the booth,\u201d said Michael Johnny, Manager of KM at York. \u201cIt was also great to connect with many decision-makers from numerous federal departments across the country. The discussions we had were valuable and will help to strengthen York\u2019s role as a national leader in KM.\u201d<br \/>\nKrista Jensen, a KM Officer at York, presented SSHRC staff with a summary of the activities at York that have been supported by the Knowledge Impact in Society grant.<br \/>\n\u201cThis crucial grant,\u201d said Jensen, \u201cmakes KM capacity and services possible for York Region, one of the fastest-growing regions in the country.\u201d<br \/>\nLeadership and support for the KM Unit\u2019s visit was provided by the Office of the Vice-President Research &amp; Innovation at York. Funding was provided by SSHRC and CIHR.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/researchimpact.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/06\/dsc012871.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-43\" src=\"http:\/\/researchimpact.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/06\/dsc012871.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/researchimpact.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/06\/dsc012891.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-44\" src=\"http:\/\/researchimpact.files.wordpress.com\/2008\/06\/dsc012891.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thousands of academics, researchers, and policymakers converged on Vancouver, B.C. last week for Congress 2008, which marked the 30th anniversary of the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC).
