Promising activities that increase research to policy uptake:
• Interaction between researchers and decision takers/policy makers.
• Building research to policy partnership networks and trust
• General climate: timing and timeliness of research evidence Innvaer et al. 2002
![Page 4: Africa Centre for Systematic Reviews and Knowledge Translation “Africa Centre” //chs.mak.ac.ug/afcen/about-us Prof.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/56649e685503460f94b64f61/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Barriers to research R2P include:
• Lack of perceived relevance of the research by decision takers/policy makers.
• Negative attitude towards use of research evidence by decision takers/policy makers.
• Lack of relevant skills by decision • find, read, appraise & interpret research evidence.
• Use of jargon in research evidence brief write ups.
• Power and budget struggles among decision takers/policy makers. Innvaer et al. 2002

Research NOT ALWAYS USED by decision makers*

Where am I?
You’re 30 metres above the
ground in a balloon
You must be a researcher
Yes. How did you know?
Because what you told me is absolutely
correct but completely useless
You must be a policy makerYes, how
did you know?
Because you don’t know where you are, you don’t know where you’re going, and now you’re blaming
me

What is Knowledge Translation?
“KT is a dynamic and iterative process that includes the identification, synthesis, dissemination, exchange and ethically sound application of knowledge to improve health, provide more effective health services and products and strengthen the healthcare system”
(Canadian Institute of Health Research, 2004)
Synonyms of KT:Implementation Science
Operations Research Knowledge Management Diffusion of Innovation
CPD/CME

What is a systematic review?
• Reviews prepared using a documented systematic approach, in order to minimize bias and random errors.
• (Chalmers and Altman, 1995)
-Protocol driven-Well defined question: PICOST-Eligibility criteria: explicit inclusion and exclusion-Outcomes: clear and a priori-Search strategy: comprehensive

![Page 16: Africa Centre for Systematic Reviews and Knowledge Translation “Africa Centre” //chs.mak.ac.ug/afcen/about-us Prof.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/56649e685503460f94b64f61/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Objective 1: Building capacity for conducting systematic review and utilization among researchers, health professionals and health decision makers in Uganda.
• Objective 2: Conducting high quality systematic reviews in the priority areas of Millennium Development Goals 4 (child health) or 5 (maternal health) and or 6 (infectious or non-communicable diseases) relevant to sub- Saharan Africa.
• Objective 3: Disseminating products of evidence synthesis and facilitating interaction between researchers and policy makers in Uganda to prioritize plan and deliberate on research evidence from systematic reviews.
![Page 17: Africa Centre for Systematic Reviews and Knowledge Translation “Africa Centre” //chs.mak.ac.ug/afcen/about-us Prof.](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042512/56649e685503460f94b64f61/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Objective 4: Assessing the extent to which existing published systematic reviews are informative and helpful in answering urgent policy makers’ needs (questions) handled by Rapid Response Mechanism in the four study countries.
• Objective 5: Planning for a systematic evaluation of the Rapid Response Mechanism in Uganda, Burkina Faso, Zambia and Cameroon.
