Building the discipline of Integration and Implementation Sciences (I2S) requires bringing together existing concepts and methods, which are relevant to the three I2S domains:

• Synthesising disciplinary and stakeholder knowledge
• Understanding and managing diverse unknowns
• Providing integrated research support for policy and practice change.

Cutting across these domains are key elements including:

• systems thinking
• scoping and boundary setting
• framing
• dealing with values
• harnessing and managing differences.

As we become aware of relevant materials, they are included under:

• tools, which are concepts and methods underpinning I2S
• case repositories, which are collections of case studies usually of an I2S concept or method
• key readings.

In addition, for a discipline to function effectively it needs a 'college of peers', who interact via professional associations and networks, as well as through  journals and conferences. We therefore also provide information about existing:

• journals, which publish at least some papers relevant to I2S
• professional associations and networks, which have interests wholly or partially overlapping with I2S
• conferences covering areas which intersect with I2S.

Suggestions for inclusion are welcome and can be sent via our contact us form.
