Sixth D&I Interest Group Meeting
As Dissemination and Implementation (D&I) Interest Group, we aim to dig deeper into the types of activities that funders carry out in this area and the factors that influence their success. The topic of this D&I Interest group meeting is to discuss opportunities for collaboration between Funders and National networks.
Implementation is a growing field and it is increasingly seen as a recognized profession. Barbara van der Linden from ZonMw will share some examples of what we are working on together with the Dutch NIC (Netherlands Implementation Collaborative), and also elaborate on the EIC (European Implementation Collaborative) and its activities in relation to national networks.

EViR Webinar – AIMMS/Mentoring Scheme – Lessons Learned and Reflections
Funding organisations are constantly looking into strengthening their approach to EDI (Equality, Diversity and Inclusion).

Mentoring schemes provide the power to accelerate self-development and career progression, among other benefits.
