Trainings, learning opportunities, workshops, Evidence production, Promote Cochrane or the Cochrane geographic group(s) & gain visibility
Trained 25 individuals, with the following region of origin: 44% Americas, 24% European, 16% Southeast Asia, 8% African, 4% Western Pacific, 4% Eastern Mediterranean.
Our trainees included participants with a PhD (64%), an MD/MBBS (16%), a Masters degree (20%).

We have 3 learning objectives, 1. To develop technical skills and knowledge in systematic reviews of nutrition-specific and nutrition-sensitive interventions​; 2. To understand the processes of evidence assessment and global policy making for nutrition-related issues​; 3. To complete hands-on training in the development of Cochrane systematic reviews relevant to nutrition and global health.
Our post-Institute evaluations showed that ~100% fully or mostly met all 3 learning objectives.
