Abstract
The workshop acted to strengthen capacities of the Canadian International Food Security Programme (CIFSRF) research teams to understand and use effective strategies, approaches and tools for engaging with policy processes, and for linking their research to policy making. In particular, the project teams were supported in producing three outputs: an outcome story to document significant outcomes during the project; a policy brief on one issue informed by the research process; and a communication strategy (including timelines/milestones and budgeting) for the final year of the project. The report includes a summary of the participants’ evaluation of workshop activities.
