Consortium Framework

MISSION

To ensure that people & communities, health professionals and policymakers have access to reliable, up-to-date evidence to inform healthcare decisions.

VISION

A national system that delivers reliable, evidence-based summaries of the latest research to point-of-care in near real-time, driving better care and health outcomes.

OUR ROLE

The Consortium will bring together a group of leading experts in evidence synthesis, automation technologies, guideline development, consumer engagement and knowledge translation who are committed to establishing frontier projects in Living Evidence.

We will leverage early investment to further develop the platforms, processes and partnerships required to revolutionise Australia’s evidence synthesis and dissemination capability.

Driven by a series of Frontier Projects, over the next 3-5 years the Consortium will have a central coordination and facilitation role in:
