KMb Series: What in the World Cafe?
Find out how community-based research methods can support knowledge mobilization.
Using a modified World Café method, the Person-Centred Care Research Team at the University of Calgary, with support from the Patient Engagement Team at the Alberta SPOR SUPPORT Unit, engaged with diverse communities across Alberta about their thoughts on mental health care in their communities.
This interactive webinar will cover the basics of community engagement and collaborative partnerships, the steps involved in the World Café method, and the potential impacts of World Cafés as a knowledge mobilization tool. Facilitators will walk us through a “diet” World Café activity for a hands-on experience.
