The Second Cochrane Hong Kong Symposium, in particular, endeavors to magnify the significance, reach, and impact of Cochrane’s high - quality, accessible evidence. This is to further evidence - based practice and policy formulation. By leveraging Cochrane’s comprehensive systematic reviews and evidence synthesis strategies, the delegates will acquire skills and competencies in using and generating crucial evidence, thereby enhancing well - informed health decision - making.
This event not only offers opportunities for professional development but also provides a unique chance for networking. Moreover, participants can immerse themselves in Hong Kong’s vibrant cultural environment and experience its warm hospitality.
