Research, data and evidence
Data and intelligence are the backbone of effective public health protection, promotion, and healthcare. In an ever-evolving world, the ability to make evidence-based decisions is crucial for the well-being of our communities. By leveraging innovative research and robust data analysis, we provide actionable insights that drive effective public health strategies.
Our team consistently uses data and intelligence to inform our work, drawing from peer-reviewed scientific research and a range of public and discreet sources. Some of the key data sources we use are:
