More about the Global Evidence Summit
The inaugural Global Evidence Summit, was held in Cape Town in 2017. While preparations were underway for the second Summit in 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the postponement of the event.
Cochrane, JBI, GIN and Campbell Collaboration aim to deliver a bigger and better Global Evidence Summit in 2024 to advance the use of reliable research evidence in addressing some of the world’s most serious health and social challenges.
The Global Evidence Summit is intended as a multi-disciplinary and cross-cultural event to exchange ideas about how we best produce, summarise and disseminate evidence to inform policy and practice, and using that evidence to improve people’s lives across the world.
