KMb Plan Element Description Partners / Engagement Before a Principal Investigators think about what they want to do they
need to start with the partnerships/receptors and forms of engagement with identified audiences. Involve them in the KMb planning
Goal Frame the project in terms what you want to achieve and how you plan to achieve it. • Overall Objective: high level, long horizon • Specific Goals: more granular, measurable; achieving goals by
undertaking activities (below) at each stage of the impact pathway Activities Activities need to be mapped to specific audiences and correlates to
goals and objective. Activities need to speak to academic and non-academic audiences and are designed to move the project along the impact pathway
Evaluation A longitudinal look at the results of the knowledge mobilization plan, specific indicators at each stage of the impact pathway. Impacts are measured at level of end user/receptor/partner.
