MUTATINA Boniface | Feasibility of a One-stop-shop for Evidence to Support Health Policy making in Uganda

MUTATINA Boniface examined the feasibility of a one-stop shop for evidence on health policy and systems in Uganda a resource for facilitating evidence-to-action. Through this work, he identified a seven-step process inventory for developing a one-stop shop for evidence on health policy and systems that could guide those interested in establishing such resources and was able to demonstrate its feasibility in Uganda and other LMICs. He was also able to identify important usability factors related to the design of the resource. He used the findings from this work to develop a theoretical framework for identifying and build- ing a tailored index of local health policy-relevant documents to support country-level efforts towards evidence-to-action. This work was funded by IDRC-Canada and supervised by Prof. Nelson Sewankambo and Prof. John Lavis.
