Knowledge Mobilisation Strategies and Techniques for Community University Partnerships

This resource explores effective knowledge mobilization strategies developed by Emily Gagnon and Professor Angie Hart at Boingboing Social Enterprise/University of Brighton. Central to the concept of Communities of Practice, the emphasis is on sharing, mutuality, and collaboration across organizational and disciplinary boundaries. The aim is to foster active community-university partnerships, enabling groups to accumulate knowledge, develop unique perspectives, and build personal relationships. Engage with various forms of participation to enhance collective problem-solving and learning in diverse global contexts. For further resources, visit www.cupp.org.uk.
