Finally, we write up the workshop and hand over the final phase to the decision makers.
This can be used for some of the outputs of local government such as strategies, plans, health impact assessment, practice guidance, job descriptions or commissioning services.

Fourth, once local users have looked at the summary evidence, KNOW-PH come to the local area to engage in a deep dive face to face workshop.
This is where we work together to make sense of the evidence using design methods. Importantly, we bring research findings together with local knowledge.

We provide support such as informative maps, videos, summaries and interactive digital outputs, depending on the project.

Working in collaboration with local authorities, we learn more about their population, priorities and challenges. This gives us a better understanding of a place and how we can help.
Third, we go away and search, sift and select evidence.

First, we start by establishing a connection with key people in a local authority. We discuss the topic of interest, local area & the evidence need. Second, we look more closely at the issue which may be, for example, mental health or air quality & search NIHR evidence that addresses that issue. 3/8

The animation explains our rapid evidence support for local government. Our rapid response programme helps local officers use research in their policy, practice and decision making.
Our rapid projects are 3-6 months long and this thread and the animation explains what you can expect.

Mobilising knowledge is not just about ensuring evidence reaches those who can use it, but also making the process easy.
This means making knowledge available in the long term, that is helped by making everything you archive including communication and engagement activities open and accessible. 3/4

In recent years there has been an increased focus on how research papers and supplemental data can be preserved openly.
@andytattersall.bsky.social @lizzysuch.bsky.social @joelangley.bsky.social & Fiona Marshall argue equal attention should also be paid to curating communication outputs. 2/4
