The Evidence Network

Evidence based - medicine, health care, nursing - and other variations abound.

Having requested a subscription regularly into my inbox pops the The Evidence Network's newsletter c/o Alan Gomersall, at the Centre for Policy & Practice, King’s College London.

This issue - includes a number of recent reports from the Social Policy & Practice database which appear to be relevant to EBPP (evidence-based policy and practice), as well as the usual coverage of new services, forthcoming conferences and courses etc.

Associates Network

The Associates Network fosters contact between members of a diverse and growing EBPP community. Membership is free, but you must be an active researcher or practitioner with a particular interest in evidence-based policy and practice issues. Benefits include:
  • access to the Associates database of the activities, interests and contact details of over 1,350 members of the Network worldwide
  • a regular email newsletter, to which you can contribute
  • an opt-in email discussion group
  • a discounted subscription to the peer reviewed journal Evidence & Policy.
I've tried to capture some key resources on the SCIENCES links page - must make sure this network is there.
