The Nepal Health Research Council (NHRC) is inviting abstract submissions for the 10th National Summit of Health and Population Scientists in Nepal, scheduled from 10-12 April, 2024. The theme of this year summit is “Advancing Health and Population Research and Innovations: Achieving SDGs.” NHRC, the apex authority for health research in Nepal, organizes these summits annually since 2015 to encourage discussions among researchers, policymakers, and development partners in healthcare. It aims to promote evidence-based decision-making and collaboration within the healthcare community.
The National Health Policy 2019 of Government of Nepal highlights the significance of health research for both health improvement and economic growth. However, research findings are often overlooked when making policies, resulting in a gap between research and action. A national summit is necessary to bridge this gap, focusing on ways to use research effectively to shape policies and practices. This involves creating channels for better communication between researchers and policymakers. Given the current global challenges like environmental changes and health crises, it is crucial to generate relevant and high-quality evidence to address these issues effectively.
The 10th National Summit with the theme titled, “Advancing Health and Population Research and Innovations: Achieving SDGs” brings together researchers, academics, practitioners, and policymakers to share health and population research and discuss national health priorities. It aims to explore ways to translate research findings and innovations into informed decision-making and practice. Research for health and evidence informed decision making is pivotal in maintaining and achieving enhancing overall health
