This workshop targeted MOH staff who are in a position of making changes to policy. We collaborated with Prof Karen Luyt from University of Bristol, UK to present an example of how Cochrane evidence was translated into a policy that had a big impact.
The learning objectives of this workshop are: At the end of the workshop participants will be able to:
1. Read, interpret and apply findings of a Cochrane review
2. Understand how others have successfully translated Cochrane evidence into policy
3. Develop an evidence-to-policy plan in their areas of interest
