IKT Guiding Principles: demonstration of diffusion and dissemination in partnership.

Often, research findings do not get to the people, groups, and/or institutions who could benefit from the findings. Two ways to help move research into practice more efficiently are to: (1) work in partnership with people who may benefit most from the research findings, and (2) share and communicate the findings of research beyond scientists. However, little is known about how to work in partnership while sharing the results of a research study. Therefore, this project demonstrates how a research partnership can work while promoting the results of their research project. Overall, working in partnership while sharing research findings may further help to ensure the research results are shared with those who could benefit from those findings.
