Institutionalising evidence-informed decision making for health policy development
May 21 @ 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm
This event, strategically organised alongside the World Health Assembly, provides a critical platform to catalyse the institutionalisation of EIDM. We will share valuable lessons learned from piloting the WHO institutionalisation checklist in Trinidad and Tobago, Tajikistan, Thailand, and South Africa, showcasing its potential to drive meaningful change. By bringing together Member States, WHO representatives, researchers, community groups, international organisations, and other stakeholders, this meeting will support future efforts for institutionalising EIDM leading to stronger country capacities for using evidence routinely in decision-making. Together, we will identify key policy challenges and enablers, explore strategies to overcome barriers, and work towards institutionalising EIDM to accelerate progress towards the SDGs.
