NIOSH Program Portfolio

Communication and Information Dissemination

Outputs: Research to Practice

The NIOSH Research to Practice (r2p) initiative focuses on the transfer and translation of research findings, technologies, and information into highly effective prevention practices and products which are adopted in the workplace.

The goal of r2p is to increase workplace use of effective NIOSH and NIOSH-funded research findings. NIOSH continues to work with our partners to focus research on ways to develop effective products, translate research findings into practice, target dissemination efforts, and evaluate and demonstrate the effectiveness of these efforts in improving worker health and safety.

The Communication Portfolio’s alignment with the r2p initiative facilitates collaboration with all NORA sectors and cross-sector programs to build the capacity of NIOSH researchers and partners to reach their intended audiences.
