Living evidence syntheses: the emerging opportunity to increase evidence‐informed health policy in Australia

Description

The prospect of rapid translation of research on health policy through living evidence has been embraced globally, with the World Health Organization, Cochrane, Pan American Health Organization, United States Government, and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence all committing to adopting living evidence approaches. However, the use of living evidence to date has been focused primarily on discrete clinical areas, such as treatments for stroke and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19).

We believe there is an opportunity to realise the substantial potential benefits of living evidence for health systems, and to lead this field internationally by co‐creating mechanisms and strengthening knowledge translation architecture to encourage living evidence use in health policy. A critical early step in realising this ambition is to establish an Australian research agenda to understand and advance living evidence for policy.
