Journal Article
Decision makers need 'living' evidence synthesis
2021
Overview
The resulting publications are generally called systematic reviews, and often include a meta-analysis. Since the 1980s, the practice of evidence synthesis has grown to become the foundation for high-impact decision-making in disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment, and in other aspects of health. Evidence synthesis can be applied to the most pressing global challenges: climate change, energy transitions, biodiversity loss, antimicrobial resistance, poverty eradication and so on. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has been very effective in synthesizing evidence on the anthropogenic causes of climate change, its impacts and the potential effects of long-term emission-reduction strategies. Living evidence could help to firmly establish this capacity to ensure that the thousands of decisions needed to achieve net-zero emissions are supported by reliable and up-to-date scientific evidence.
