Health Research Agenda

CHRC and its stakeholders have started the development of a Health Research Agenda for the Caribbean. The crafting of the Agenda is guided by the latest edition of the Caribbean Cooperation in Health (CCH III). The latter defines the health priorities of the Caribbean and comprises eight programme areas.

One of the objectives of the Agenda is to guide the conduct of research so as to facilitate the evidence-informed implementation of the CCH III as well as other activities identified as priority by Caribbean countries. The Agenda will therefore identify priority areas for research to provide results that then can guide the development of policies, programmes and best practices.
