Aims

You will learn how evidence fits into the policy cycle, what types of evidence are available, and how to critique a paper. The first half of the workshop will cover the common study types you will come across, alongside some of their strengths and limitations, and the conclusions you might reach when reading a paper. The second half of the workshop will be practical, where we will critique and discuss an example of a published paper.

Learning outcomes
  • Understand how to define questions and find evidence
  • Understand key study types, their features and how they are used
  • Understand how to critically appraise a paper, including validity and applicability to the local setting
  • Know where to access further resources to support critical appraisal
