- Abstract
Knowledge translation (KT) is a topic of interest for researchers; however, little has been published about how to plan and prioritize KT activities. This article describes the development and outcomes of a KT strategic planning activity for a research organization. An online survey and planning meeting resulted in the identification of six priority areas: engaging families, nurturing partnerships, optimizing access to knowledge, KT capacity building, advancing KT science, and funding for future KT activities. The organization collectively determined short- and long-term objectives, strategies, and measurable outcomes for the KT priority areas. The strategic planning process helped with prioritizing KT activities and engaged members in a collaborative discussion of mutual interest. The process described may be useful for others interested in developing KT strategic plans.
