BC Environmental and Occupational Health Research Network

IPPH will fund meritorious knowledge exchange activities (e.g. workshops1, environmental scans, researcher exchanges to facilitate joint research project development with/between IPPH-funded teams/centres/training initiatives) to facilitate collaboration among individuals from a variety of disciplines, backgrounds and roles (e.g. researchers and research users such as program managers, policy-makers and practitioners) with the objective of developing and/or enhancing:
• collaborative research and knowledge exchange initiatives to address at least one or more domains of IPPH’s strategic research and knowledge exchange priorities that are underdeveloped;
• interdisciplinary networks of researchers and research users dedicated to addressing one or more of IPPH’s strategic research and knowledge exchange priorities (across geography and/or discipline and/or sector); and
• consensus on priority policy issues and research questions in IPPH’s strategic research and knowledge exchange priority areas, where such common understanding is currently lacking or requires further development.
