Book Description:
The Report provides a compass to reorient the health research endeavour to respond more effectively at national and global levels to contemporary public health challenges. This reorientation requires strengthening health research systems, creating an environment conducive to research-informed policy and practice, and focusing on key priorities in health policy and systems research. The Reports recommendations and action plan build on the past achievements of health research and highlight particular elements within health research systems that deserve special attention and closer management in order to make even more progress in the future.
