International Colloquium - Evidence for Action
----------------------------------------------
25-29 October, 2000
Cape Town, South Africa
The Cochrane Collaboration invites all health care providers, policy
makers, educators, consumers, researchers and the health care industry
to its eighth international colloquium.
Interactive sessions will focus on challenges that are unfolding as the
Cochrane Collaboration pursues its goal of preparing, updating and dis-
seminating systematic reviews of the effects of health care interven-
tions. The implications of evidence from Cochrane reviews of health
care practice, policy and research will also be considered. Case stud-
ies will provide a backdrop for discussions and priority topics will
include Tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, Malaria, Pregnancy and Childbirth, To-
bacco Addiction and Heart Disease. Training in the methods of system-
atic review and meta-analysis will be provided at both beginner and ad-
vanced levels.
