Running the training

We ran a week-long training course to introduce participants to knowledge brokerage concepts, tools, and techniques. As a general approach, we recommend training should be based on dialogue, self-reflection, mutual learning, and co-creation. Participants therefore played an active role by suggesting new topics, reinterpreting their own experiences, exchanging experiences and knowledge, and interacting with speakers.
