The Research Connections Unit of the Office of the Vice-President, Research is refreshing its inaugural Knowledge Mobilization (KMb) Strategy 2019-2021, and we are seeking your views on existing KMb services, your KMb needs and priorities.

Just as the 2019 uOttawa researcher survey informed the development of the initial strategy, the information obtained from this survey will inform activities and support for the upcoming years.

The survey takes approximately 15 minutes to complete and will be available until September 30, 2021.

For any questions about the survey, please contact Marie-Eve Girard.

Thank you for your help on this important evaluation.

The Office of the Vice President, Research has just recently launched a website on EDI in research, which lists best practices and resources for researchers, as well as uOttawa experts on EDI. This website is one of the initiatives gathered within the EDI Action Plan for Research currently under construction by the  EDI Advisory Committee for Research. The Contest  More Inclusion, Better Research: Inspiring Stories Competition and three virtual panel discussions on the current situation of groups underrepresented in research are also among the uOttawa’s strategies to attain excellence in research through equity, diversity and inclusion. 

This program, open to every field of expertise, provides funding for new scientific projects jointly developed by French and Canadian teams that have never worked together before. Applications must be submitted as joint projects between a French institution and one of the 20 Canadian universities that are members of the FCRF, including uOttawa.

The opportunity is open to all research fields while promoting interdisciplinary projects with approximately 20 projects funded. For the 2022 edition, the annual theme is the Impact of global change on Oceans and Coastal regions with funding of up to 5 projects in this theme.
