• This paper describes a knowledge transfer experiment that has been conducted since September 2012 in Argenteuil (Val d'Oise, France). This experiment is part of an interventional research project called DeCL/C: "Knowledge translation on social and spatial inequalities: a tool to raise local awareness and mobilization to lessen cancer screening participation rate disparities': The project is carried out by health geographers from Paris Ouest University (UPO) and the National Association of Cities for Public Health (Elus, Sante Publique et Territoires, ESPT). It encompasses two main components: intervention designed to implement a knowledge co-production and transfer process among researchers, stakeholders and decision makers at various levels. This knowledge concerns social and spatial determinants of inequalities of access to breast cancer screening programmes in cities. The research is multidisciplinary (geography, sociology, political science, epistemology) and is designed to measure the impact of this knowledge co-production and transfer in terms of actions in the targeted cities (six cities in the Paris region) as well as the reduction of inequalities of access to breast cancer screening programmes. This article, based on knowledge transfer literature and an empirical experiment in Argenteuil, describes the ongoing knowledge transfer process. It also highlights Argenteuil stakeholders' and decision makers' interest in action and research. The analysis of the knowledge co-production, sharing and ownership process by local actors a e both "strategic" and "profound':
