ABSTRACT

Knowledge translation (KT) is a key process in which participatory action research (PAR) findings are shared and applied. KT involves disseminating research findings to reach target audiences (e.g., policy-makers, researchers, clinicians, public) and effectively promote change. A rise in digital research methods has demonstrated the potential for using digital technology to share research with a wide range of audiences. Participatory digital KT (PDKT) strategies can facilitate collaboration between scholar researchers, co-researchers, research participants, and stakeholders including target audiences. In this chapter, we discuss key considerations for engaging in PDKT, provide an example from our own work with a Toronto-based bicycle organization, and outline key strengths and weaknesses of PDKT.
