Evidence-based public health

Evidence-based public health is an approach that uses the best available scientific research and data to inform decisions about programs, policies, and practices aimed at improving community health. It involves systematically evaluating what interventions work, understanding the local context, and applying proven strategies to prevent disease, promote well-being, and address health disparities. This method ensures that public health efforts are effective, efficient, and based on reliable information, leading to better health outcomes for populations.
