How to use NavigationRequest targetProperties?

In my case I want to navigate to a global view from another global view and want to pass a context. I use NavigationRequest to the target view and dispatch event. I also want to pass a context. I see there is a property targetProperties in the NavigationRequest, how can I use that? Am I on the right path or is it not possible to navigate to a global view with a context?

thanks,
