Knowledge Mobilization and the Halton Ontario Community Data Portal
Track: Human Services
Authors: Elisabeth Wells

The OKN Data Portal is an interactive online database where users will find community & neighbourhood-level information, demographics, OKN research data on health, safety, education, Developmental Assets, Census data & others. We discuss how OKN built their Portal, including description of the consultation process with end users & the results of that consultation, the initial pilot testing of the Data Portal, & an evaluation of the OKN’s Knowledge Mobilization plan for the Data Portal.
