It is a privilege and proud moment to chair an IMPORTANT & FREE learning opportunity from Renowned Global Organizations @CampbellReviews @cochranecollab @GDNint for Evidence-informed decision-making in Health.

We just wrapped up the 2nd session in the evidence synthesis webinar series! Excellent insights from @HowardNWhite & Dr. Meenu Singh on: What constitutes a mixed methods approach? Why mixed methods? How to do mixed methods? Glad to have had @suresh_lshtm to chair this session.

In a theory-based approach, thematic analysis of factual qualitative data can help explain the causal processes in the theory of change - @HowardNWhite #Webinar #Evidencesynthesis

Factual analysis of #quantitative data can help explain #heterogeneity. For eg., if there is high targeting error then the intervention won’t work as the people in the programme don’t have the condition (#poverty, #malnutrition etc.) being addressed - @HowardNWhite #webinar

There is no absolute evidence hierarchy with RCTs at the top. We need to select the most appropriate study design to answer the research question. This means combining both studies of quant & qual data, and studies combing factual & counterfactual data - @HowardNWhite #webinar

Using mixed methods gives additional insights on design and implementation, giving greater relevance to policy and practice! - @HowardNWhite Our #webinar on mixed methods #evidencesynthesis is live. Join us now! campbellsouthasia.org/event/campbell…

‘Mixed methods’ refers to analytic methods, not the type of data. So a #mixedmethods review needs to specify the methods to be used to analyse the different types of #data & to integrate findings across methods - @HowardNWhite #webinar #evidencesynthesis #systematicreview
