LIPs and RIF as Knowledge Mobilizers (webinar recording)

In this November 2021 Pathways to Prosperity Canada conference session discussed the goals of their knowledge mobilization actions, the strategies that they have utilized to achieve these goals, what has been found to be effective, and pitfalls to avoid.

One important function of LIPs and RIF is knowledge mobilization – effectively synthesizing and disseminating useful information to service providers, immigrants, and the community at large. Presenters discussed strategies that have been undertaken to fulfill this role, and the multiple means that must be employed in order to target particular knowledge users and audiences.
