WHO | World Report on Knowledge for Better Health

WHO | World Report on Knowledge for Better Health

This important report on ways in which we can bridge the gap between research and practice in healthcare will be highlighted at the World Ministerial Summit on Health Research in Mexico (November 16-20, 2004).

It highlights persistant health inequalities and makes recomendations for all countries in the developed and developing world and advocates methods of linking research, policy and practice more closely.

It will be interesting to see whether there is national & international action on this, backed up with appropriate resources or whether some of the vested interests which may be challenged by this report will maintain their power?
