What is “kmb”?
Knowledge mobilization 1015
“End of Grant” KMb: (curiosity-driven research):
The researcher develops and implements a plan for making knowledge users aware of the knowledge generated.
“Integrated” KMb (problem-based research):
The researcher engages potential knowledge users as partners in the research process. Requires a colaborative or participatory approach to research that is action oriented and is solutions and impact focused.
Types of “kmb”

Open access (OA) is the practice of providing unrestricted access via the Internet to peer-reviewed scholarly journal articles.
• Green: authors publish in any journal and then self-archive a version of the article for free public use in their institutional repository.
• Gold: authors publish in an open access journal that provides immediate OA to all of its articles on the publisher's website.
• Hybrid: provide Gold OA only for those individual articles for which their authors (or their author's institution or funder) pay an OA publishing fee

• my response about the action of page Brigitte de Pape (the "Stop Harper" sign in June 2011), got the most hits in one day because it was a reflection (drawing upon my experience and expertise about democracy and political communication via protest actions, such as de Pape's). I had 131 hits, normally the site averages 5-15 hits/day.
