The Knowledge Translation Toolkit provides a thorough overview of what knowledge translation (KT) is and how to use it most effectively to bridge the βknowβdoβ gap between research, policy, practice, and people. It presents the theories, tools, and strategies required to encourage and enable evidence-informed decision-making.

The book covers an array of crucial KT enablersβfrom context mapping to evaluative thinkingβsupported by practical examples, implementation guides, and references.
