Knowledge Mobilisation Forum 2026

Knowledge is the awareness, understanding, and interpretation of facts, truths, and experiences that shape how we perceive the world. It is not static; rather, it evolves through questioning, observation, and reflection. This dynamic nature of knowledge sparks curiosity because every answer often leads to new questions, revealing gaps and possibilities for deeper exploration. Curiosity thrives on the unknown—it pushes us to seek patterns, challenge assumptions, and imagine what lies beyond our current understanding.

The UK Knowledge Mobilisation Forum is a place where researchers and practitioners can come together to bridge theory and practice to address real-world challenges. By collaborating, they ensure that research is not confined to academic circles but actively informs decisions, improves services, and drives social innovation. This partnership fosters mutual learning—practitioners provide feedback on what works in practice, guiding researchers to refine their approaches, while researchers offer evidence-based solutions that enhance impact. Together, they transform knowledge into tangible benefits, promoting equity, sustainability, and positive societal change.

Join us in Bristol on the 22nd-23rd April 2026 if you are curious!
