Primary objectives
- Community Building and Networking: The Institute prioritizes investing in community among its participants. This is achieved by creating small, collaborative groups, or ‘pods,’ that meet at both the start and end of each day. This structure fosters a supportive learning environment and encourages the sharing of experiences and insights. Additionally, the use of network mapping and designated spaces for one-to-one interactions ensures that participants develop lasting professional relationships, significantly enriching their professional networks.
- Incorporation of Appreciative Inquiry: A key aim is to incorporate the principles of Appreciative Inquiry into the training programs. This approach focuses on identifying and building upon existing strengths within D&I practices. By highlighting successful examples and encouraging a positive, solution-oriented dialogue, the Institute aims to equip participants with a constructive and effective methodology for addressing challenges in dissemination and implementation.
- Teaching Cutting-Edge Concepts and Embracing Uncertainties: The Institute is dedicated to teaching the latest concepts in the field of implementation research while acknowledging and exploring the uncertainties and controversies that accompany this evolving field. This aim stresses the importance of not only applying existing knowledge but also being open to learning and adapting to new developments and challenges. This approach ensures that participants are well-prepared to navigate and contribute to the dynamic and ever-changing landscape of dissemination and implementation research.
Outcomes
- Gain knowledge and skills to address the challenges and complexities of implementing evidence-based interventions in diverse settings.
- Enhance future research endeavors, foster collaborative projects, and contribute to the collective advancement of implementation science.
