Training course: An introduction to systematic reviews in the humanitarian context

Evidence Aid

Building on his successful and popular courses on systematic reviews in a wide variety of settings, Professor Mike Clarke will lead this 1-day Evidence Aid course to place systematic reviews in the context of disasters and humanitarian aid.

The course will provide learning and practical experience in key aspects of reviewing; such as question formulation and eligibility, searching, data extraction, analysis and reporting. Participants should leave the course feeling more comfortable about doing their own review and more confident when using reviews for decision making. The course will combine discussion, small group work and lectures, and is aimed at academics, volunteers and others in the humanitarian or disaster risk reduction sectors. It is free to attend, with lunch and refreshments provided.

The course will be at PAHO, 525 Twenty-third Street, Washington, DC 20037, from 09.00-18.15 on 16 November 2016. Spaces are limited and if you would like to be considered for attendance, e-mail Claire Allen, callen@evidenceaid.org, with your contact details and host organisation.
