This learning module will lead those engaged in collaborative health research - both researchers and knowledge users - through many of the key issues that should be considered and addressed when taking an integrated approach to creating knowledge and translating it into action. The module includes many real-life examples and case studies to illustrate learning points discussed in each section. This material was developed by David Parry BA (Hons), Jon Salsberg MA and Ann C Macaulay CM MD FCFP at Participatory Research at McGill (PRAM), Department of Family Medicine, McGill University.
