2021 Knowledge Mobilization Awards

The Knowledge Mobilization Awards annual celebration highlights action-forward, socially impactful research conducted by graduate students and postdoctoral scholars at ASU. Students, faculty, staff and community members are welcome to attend. Attendees will engage with creative scholars across disciplines and learn more about the meaning of knowledge mobilization and how current research at ASU is being moved from the page and into action.
