Across industries and sectors we share the ambition to generate more useful knowledge to translate into practice and increase the impact our research and improve the way we work.

Knowledge mobilisation is often about working ‘in the middle’, at the interface between research and practice and bring together different worlds with different goals and different functions.

Our ambitions will only be achieved if we can make connections and these connections matter. To make the content count, we need to connect not only to each other, our contexts and cultures.

The Alliance for Useful Evidence is delighted to host the inaugural UK Knowledge Mobilisation Forum on February 3 and 4 in London.
