<p class="MsoNormal"><b>CABI launches an Evidence Synthesis Skills Framework to strengthen global capacity in evidence synthesis<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are pleased to announce the launch of an Evidence Synthesis Skills Framework. It is designed to help people and organizations develop and embed a common language around evidence synthesis skills. Policy and practice are increasingly
framed by evidence synthesis, so training in related best practices is key to strengthening capacity and supporting existing research networks.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Evidence Synthesis Skills Framework sets out the skills needed across the range of job roles within evidence synthesis teams. It is aimed at researchers, students, librarians and information specialists. It is also intended for practitioners
such as data scientists, information scientists and project managers. The framework can be used to develop job descriptions, to support personal career planning and training needs analysis, to find courses and identify gaps in educational provision. It is
free to download and use, and early reviews are positive.<o:p></o:p></p>
