This virtual training equips participants with comprehensive knowledge and hands-on skills to author high-quality systematic reviews following Cochrane standards. Led by an expert interdisciplinary faculty, the program covers foundational topics including protocol writing, PICO question development, literature search strategies, bias assessment, data analysis (both dichotomous and continuous outcomes), and meta-analysis. Participants will also gain experience with key tools like Covidence and RevMan, and engage in small group exercises on title registration and critical appraisal. The course concludes with a presentation session and feedback, preparing attendees to launch their own Cochrane review projects with confidence. Ideal for those seeking methodological rigor and collaboration in evidence-based health research, this training emphasizes interactive learning, peer engagement, and direct mentorship from seasoned Cochrane authors.

These risks are exacerbated by the fact that everything in our society, from the built environment to cultural practices around the world, emerged and were designed around a past climate that no longer exists. As the global atmosphere rapidly approaches 1.5°C of warming and carbon emissions continue to rise, how can we navigate this reality, manage growing physical risks, and create systems, practices, and structures that are prepared for the future? In this session, Alison will explore these questions, learn how to apply world-class climate model data and maps, and build the climate literacy that is essential for everyone living and working in our society today.
