This is Not a New Problem : The Case of Scurvy
1601 : Lancaster shows that lemon juice supplement eliminates scurvy among sailors
1747 : Lind shows that citrus juice supplement eliminates scurvy
1795 : [ 194 years after discovery ] British Navy implements citrus juice supplement

KNOWLEDGE TRANSLATION
Knowledge Translation: Knowledge Translation: DefinitionDefinition
The synthesis, exchange, and The synthesis, exchange, and application of knowledge by relevant application of knowledge by relevant stakeholders to accelerate the stakeholders to accelerate the benefits of global and local benefits of global and local innovation in strengthening health innovation in strengthening health systems and improving people’s systems and improving people’s healthhealth
CIHR CIHR DefinitionDefinition

Ethically sound application of knowledge
Dissemination
Knowledge exchange
What is Knowledge Translation? The contextualization and integration of research findings of individual research studies within the larger body of knowledge on the topic. Synthesis is a family of methodologies for determining what is known in a given area or field and what the knowledge gaps are.
The iterative process by which knowledge is actually considered, put into practice or used to improve health and the health system. KT activities must be consistent with ethical principles and norms, social values as well as legal and other regulatory frameworks
Refers to the interaction between the knowledge user and the researcher resulting in mutual learning, it encompasses the concept of collaborative or participatory, action oriented research where researchers and knowledge users work together as partners to conduct research to solve knowledge users’ problems (Integrated KT).
Involves identifying the appropriate audience for the research findings, and tailoring the message and medium to the audience.

Two broad categories of KT
End of grant KT
Integrated KT
The researcher develops and implements a plan for making knowledge users aware of the knowledge generated through a research project
The researcher engages potential knowledge users as partners in the research process. This requires a collaborative or participatory approach to research that is action oriented and is solutions and impactimpact focused.
Health promotion …….Health promotion …….
““is the process of enabling people to is the process of enabling people to increase control over and to improve their increase control over and to improve their health” health” (Ottawa Charter ’86)(Ottawa Charter ’86)
““involves the facilitation of skills in involves the facilitation of skills in individuals and change in environments individuals and change in environments which impact positively on health” which impact positively on health” (VicHealth 2005)(VicHealth 2005)
““is everyone’s business” is everyone’s business” (CEO DHCS 2004)(CEO DHCS 2004)
Health Promotion
Focus on the whole population.
Use a number of interventionssimultaneously.
Support people to make a ‘healthy’ choice.
Historically has been skewed towards education, need all strategies and approaches, not just one
• Build healthy public policy
• Create supportive environments
• Strengthen community action
• Develop personal skills
• Re-orient health services
