What matters, where and how – evidence-informed policy networks and the making of knowledge in global health
REFNo: SSH2ES

With the WHO as an early and influential proponent, evidence-based/-informed health policy approaches have become something of a shibboleth, separating the good from the bad in global health decision-making and deemed indispensable to improving health especially in low-income countries. This research project traces the emergence and transformations of evidence-for-policy approaches at the WHO; and explores how evidence-informed policy is currently practiced through the WHO’s prime evidence-for-policy mechanism, the Evidence-informed Policy Network (EVIPNet).\r\nThe Uganda EVIPNet country ‘node’, run by the Regional East Africa Community Health (REACH) Policy Initiative, counts among the most active and successful evidence-to-policy initiatives on the continent (Ongolo-Zogo et al. 2014; WHO 2016). Using EVIPNet/REACH Uganda as an empirical case study, this component of my research project examines some the practices, promises and challenges of evidence-based policy in Uganda.\r\n
