Cochrane Canada webinar recordings released

Cochrane Canada recently published the recordings from the Cochrane Canada Live! webinar series held earlier this year. Three of these webinars featured experts from the McMaster Health Forum.

Stakeholder Dialogues - presented by Dr. John N. Lavis
This signature Stakeholder Dialogues program involves preparing an evidence brief about a health-system problem (and its causes), options to address it, and key implementation considerations, and convening a deliberative dialogue among the policymakers, stakeholders and researchers likely to be involved in or affected by decisions related to the challenge. This webinar explored the key features of stakeholder dialogues, what we’ve learned about them and how you can request one.


Citizen Panels - presented by Dr. François-Pierre Gauvin
The Forum's Citizen Panels program complements our Stakeholder Dialogues program. A citizen brief about a health-system problem (and its causes), options to address it, and key implementation considerations is prepared, which informs a deliberative dialogue among a group of citizens who are ethnoculturally, socioeconomically and in other ways diverse. This webinar explored the key features of citizen panels, what we’ve learned about them, and how you can request one.


Health Systems Learning Educational Program, presented by Dr. Kaelan Moat
Health Systems Learning provides online and in-person training about how to strengthen health systems, and how to get cost-effective programs, services and drugs to those who need them. The first online course focuses on how to find and use evidence to accomplish this. This webinar explored the key features of this educational program, introduced the audience to related tools and resources, and outlined how you can enrol in one of the training opportunities.

"Cochrane Canada released The Cochrane Collaboration’s first webinar series in 2009, and it has since proven to be a favourite medium of training among Cochrane members in Canada and internationally."
