Knowledge Mobilization Working Group
The Knowledge Mobilization team translated community insight into usable evidence and practical action pathways. Moving away from a single, large academic symposium, the team pivoted to a bite-sized, monthly/bi-monthly hybrid "Learning Sessions" series that centred and amplified lived experience. This shift maximized accessibility, identified needs for policy shifts (such as zoning bylaw changes), and created spaces for connection, dialogue, resource-sharing, and more.
This team successfully coordinated 13 learning sessions from April 2025 until March 2026. These sessions engaged hundreds of attendees and generated community resources and education, as well as spaces of connection and amplified community voices. An archive of documentation of these sessions can be found on our blog.
What we’ve done
Starting in April 2025, JHC hosted a number of learning sessions to strengthen knowledge and collaborative networking. An archive of documentation of these sessions can be found on our blog.
As part of the Knowledge Mobilization Team’s data-gathering efforts, we invited members of the project’s working groups and stewardship team to share resources related to food security, poverty, guaranteed income, and more. This bibliography is not meant to be comprehensive, but it offers a meaningful snapshot of representative reports, surveys, articles, blog posts, and other materials that contribute to food-security research and action in Alberta and elsewhere. You can find the bibliography here.
