CREATE Policy and Advocacy

Policy and Advocacy Core

The Policy and Advocacy Core plays the pivotal role in translating the results of CREATE research into policy, and beyond policy, into practice.

Through the national and international works of the World Health Organization and its partners, PAC will advocate for the CREATE research studies and ensure that research results are rapidly included in the
process of global policy development.
