Enhance the visibility and value of your research for health with reporting guidelines

This course is the result of a collaboration between the EQUATOR Network and the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) / World Health Organization (WHO). It aims to increase the value of research and reduce research waste by enabling people who are planning to conduct, report, edit, publish, or appraise research for health to comply with current research reporting standards. The course aims to help participants to deliver impactful high-quality research in line with the recommendations in PAHO’s Policy on Research for Health and the WHO’s Strategy on Research for Health.

This is an introductory course. It does not replace formal training in research methods, such as graduate degrees in epidemiology. It provides an overview of good reporting practice at all stages of the research pathway. The ideal time to take this course is as an introductory activity before beginning and finalizing your research proposal or while planning a health research manuscript.
