Public Consultation on Population Health Intervention Research Frequently Asked Questions

As our work has been unfolding, it's been clear that different definitions of population health intervention research (PHIR) that is, different takes on what it is or could be, are getting in people's way.

The purpose of this consultation is to 'road-test' some answers to Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about PHIR and gain insights and suggestions for modifications or aspects not covered.

Results will soon be available. Thank you.
