Work Package 5

Integrated Knowledge Translation (IKT) and Dissemination

Learn about this work package.

Work Package 5 is about how we make sure the information from the IncludeAge project reaches policy makers, practitioners, and the general public who support middle to older aged people with Learning Disabilities and LGBT+ people. We will make sure our participant groups have opportunities to share their views directly with policy makers and relevant practitioners. We will also share our learning from the project in different ways including through our IncludeAge website, videos, blogs, news reports, social media releases, comics, policy briefs as well as academic conference presentations, seminars, research meetings and publications.
