SUMMARY:Introductory Course on Knowledge Synthesis for Knowledge Users
DESCRIPTION:Intro to KS for Knowledge Users_course_v5 \nThis course will teach students about knowledge synthesis in general\, as well as how to conduct knowledge synthesis projects. Students will begin to conduct knowledge synthesis in the topic of their choice\, with guidance from the course directors. Please note that the students will not be completing a full knowledge synthesis project during the duration of the course\, due to course timelines. \nAt the end of this course\, students will be able to: \n– Differentiate between different types of knowledge synthesis\, such as systematic reviews and qualitative evidence reviews\n– Distinguish between different types of evidence that can be summarized in knowledge synthesis\n– Develop a knowledge synthesis question\n– Establish the eligibility criteria for knowledge synthesis\n– Create a knowledge synthesis protocol \nWho should take this course? Graduate students\, post-doctoral fellows\, early career researchers\, new evidence synthesis practitioners\, other knowledge users. \nAll participants must bring a current or proposed knowledge synthesis project to work on in the course. University of Toronto students who are taking the course for credit must be in a PhD program. \nAttend here!

SUMMARY:Reimagining Partnerships: Collaborating with the Private Sector to Achieve the SDGs
DESCRIPTION:Amid a shifting economic and geopolitical landscape\, private sector partnerships could emerge as a key trend for 2025 and beyond. Effective collaborations between the non-profit and private sectors can play a crucial role in advancing global health and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Yet\, current private sector metrics tend to focus primarily on the financial contributions rather than social impact. At the same time\, the diversity of the private sector and assumptions often make non-profits hesitant to engage. \nThis webinar will challenge traditional perceptions\, spotlight unique ways the private sector can support NGOs\, and present practical\, innovative examples of how mutually beneficial partnerships can thrive. \nSpeakers: \n\nCaitlin McKay\, Lucky Iron Life\nAdrienne Jack\, Cowater International\nRobin Darcy\, Alinea\nMegan Dover\, Cross Border Impact Ventures\n\nAttend here!
