The Education Knowledge Broker Network is a professional community for knowledge brokers, the result of more than three years of work by a coalition committed to promoting stronger connections between research, practice, and policy.
Knowledge brokers serve as trusted resources to parse fact from fiction, critically assess a body of evidence, support appropriate application of evidence to practice, and inform research agendas by elevating lived experience and context expertise. Knowledge brokers create spaces for dialogue and connection, co-creation, and collaboration that supports more effective and equitable educational systems.
Initiated by CREATEd and launched in 2024, EKBN provides professional learning opportunities for emerging and experienced knowledge brokers. Virtual programs and events offer spaces to learn from experts, engage in collaborative conversations on problems of practice, and create a community that elevates the identities of knowledge brokers working across the education system.
