Section 1 – Aim of this Paper In line with many other countries, Ireland is currently building a systematic evidence for policy infrastructure of which Knowledge Brokerage is an important element. In order to support the development of these approaches, a number of events have been organised by state bodies to support the development of a Knowledge Brokerage system in Ireland, as an important contribution to the overall development and implementation of the research for policy ecosystem. This paper aims to describe and analyse these initiatives from a number of perspectives including setting them in context, summarising how they were planned and organised and looking at their impact. The paper further identifies the lessons that might be learned from them and suggests how future Knowledge Brokerage events might be organised to play an important role in the further advancement of research for policy in Ireland.
