The theme of the 2022 APM was “Collaborations and partnerships for successful water outcomes”. For the research team, our focus was to engage in discussions to better understand how we can accelerate the movement of research findings, data, and other products into the hands of you, our partners. More specifically, we wanted to find out more about how Prairie Water research outputs have been used to date, what the most effective ways to communicate these outputs with the widest audience have been, and what some of the challenges and opportunities to getting new knowledge into water management decision-making are. This report provides a summary and analysis of some of what we heard during the APM panel session and discussions, and what we have learned from engagement with many of you over the years of the project. We have been able to conceptualize the network through which Prairie Water outputs are and could be disseminated (Section 2). Key themes influencing the uptake of knowledge have also identified from our discussions (Section 3). Awareness of these themes and this network will help us be strategic in how we approach knowledge mobilization for the remainder of the Prairie Water project and beyond.
