Best Practices
A key component of the Centre for Chronic Disease Prevention and Control's capacity to prevent chronic disease and promote healthy living conditions in Canada is our ability to gather and use relevant evidence of 'what works', commonly known as best practices.
There is increasing demand in all sectors and across the research, policy, practice continuum, for evidence-based decision-making and accountability. National consultations have indicated the need for a national system to facilitate knowledge exchange among researchers, policy-makers and practitioners about best practices, build consensus about best practice approaches, provide a centralized access point for these approaches and coordinate activities to increase the uptake and utilization of best practice approaches.
