Knowledge Translation in the Global South: An Exploratory Mapping of the Literature

Published on 17 July 2023

This paper maps the literature that focuses on knowledge translation (KT) in the global South.

It was commissioned as part of the KT in the Global South research project, supported by Canada’s International Development Research Centre (IDRC) and led by the Institute of Development Studies (IDS). The trilingual systematised review helps discern where information about KT is missing, emerging, or well-established, and highlights information on what the KT strategies employed are, where, how, by whom, and for whom.
