N2  - Health Promotion (HP), a continuously evolving field, is riddled with complexities as experts and community members develop new approaches to researching social behaviours, addressing health concerns and advocating for the values of equity, empowerment and healthy public policy. Similarly complex is the field of knowledge translation (KT), putting research into action for the purpose of changing behaviours, policy and practice. Similar values, methods and techniques govern these two practices. This paper is based on a series of discussions between two young professionals who found themselves navigating the complexities of HP and KT and attempting to understand their chosen fields of practice. The discussions considered such issues as discipline-based silos, the use and purpose of new terminologies and languages in research, and whether or not existing practices are simply being renamed or branded in order to appear innovative and new.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
