The impact of the Manitoba Centre for Health Policy (MCHP) on policy development has resulted from an integrated approach to knowledge translation (KT), combined with a close relationship between the proposed/ongoing research and those working on provincial programs. Under a 5-year funding agreement with Manitoba Health, the director of MCHP negotiates five new major projects (called ``deliverables'') annually with the Deputy Minister of Health. Researchers interact among themselves and with the provincial government in several ways: through forums, advisory group meetings, knowledge translation workshops, and Need to Know (NTK) team meetings. Need to Know representatives are from all the regional health authorities (RHAs), from Manitoba Health, and also from MCHP staff. This and other activities related to knowledge translation are discussed.
