Abstract:
In order to evaluate the first year of collaboration between Unit for Health Promotion Research (SDU) and three municipalities a survey was completed with respondents from municipalities. The evaluation showed gains: increased use of research-based working methods, image lift, concrete products delivered, and support in project development. Challenges experienced: different working traditions, translating research into practical know-how, and lack of capacity for knowledge exchange. Future development will include building capacity for knowledge exchange and finding methods for handling the organisational barriers.
