What is the Community of Practice?

The Community of Practice is a shared space for Cochrane Groups to connect, collaborate, and learn from each other.

It brings together Review Groups, Evidence Synthesis Units, Thematic Groups, Methods, Fields and Geographic Groups to:

• share experiences and practical solutions 
• strengthen connections across groups
• reduce duplication and improve coordination
• support collective learning across Cochrane

Community of Practice Executive

The Community of Practice Executive is an advisory body that represents Cochrane Groups engaged in evidence synthesis. It brings together elected members from Evidence Synthesis Units, Review Groups, and Thematic Groups, along with appointed representatives from Fields, and Geographic Group Executives.
