Systematic Review Resources
Rigorous and systematically laid out evidence needs to be the basis for effective policies that can improve the lives of people in developing countries.
Systematic reviews facilitate access to evidence that is valid beyond the context of a single project. They examine the existing evidence on a particular intervention or programme in low and middle income countries, drawing also on evidence from developed countries when pertinent.
This page outlines key resources for the producers and users of systematic reviews in international development and beyond.
