Abstract

Knowledge mobilization (KM), which connects research results and findings to policy and practice, is the keyway to translating these complex and diverse sources of evidence and data into leading-edge policies and programs. Conducting knowledge mobilization evaluation drives transparent, evidence-based policymaking, allows organizations to benefit from lessons learned within and outside their organizations, and enhances the trust of stakeholders that the decisions made by the organization are rooted in expertise and the consideration of feedback from multiple sources. This report aims to provide information on relevant frameworks, metrics, and methods to support MCFD in developing an approach to internal knowledge mobilization evaluation, including an assessment of the areas of compatibility with the ministry's Aboriginal Policy and Practices Framework (APPF).
