Participation in the Third WHO Infodemic Manager Training

Background An infodemic according to the WHO is “an overabundance of information, both online and offline”, and typically accompanies outbreaks and pandemics e.g. COVID-19. Mis- and dis-information have wide ranging serious and adverse impacts on individuals, communities and health systems, and undermines public health responses to COVID-19. The 3rd WHO IM training is aimed to address the critical and urgent global need to develop capacity in infodemic management interventions and practice to understand and mitigate the impact of infodemics in a timely manner. Aim The 3rd IM training is aimed to build capacity so that trainees will be able to apply their knowledge and skills gained in national preparedness and response to infodemics and support the development of networks for knowledge and resource exchange The training will encompass global and region-specific topics in the infodemic and health misinformation Research Methodology The virtual tr

Policy & Practice Report

Centre of Research Excellence: Healthy Food, Healthy Planet, Healthy People

Millions of Australians and hundreds of millions of people around the world suffer from conditions caused by excessive consumption of unhealthy foods and insufficient intake of healthy foods. The food system is one of the largest contributors to environmental degradation through greenhouse gas emissions, water use and deforestation, and one of the sectors hardest hit by climate change. Access to information about the nutritional quality and environmental impacts of the food we eat is a basic consumer right, yet is lacking.  The Healthy Food, Healthy Planet, Healthy People Centre for Research Excellence will deliver world-leading innovations in nutrient profiling algorithms and environmental indicators that estimate the human and planetary consequences of varying patterns of food and beverage consumption. The project will: Identify effective means of conveying combined nutrition and sustainability information. Use the developed algorithms, environmental indicators and user response data

ACT-GLOBAL: A multi-faCtorial, mulTi-arm, multi-staGe, randomised, gLOBal Adaptive pLatform trial for stroke

Background Stroke remains a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Despite advances in medical technology and treatment strategies, many patients still do not achieve optimal outcomes. The George Institute’s ACT-GLOBAL study is an adaptive platform trial that is aiming to address the urgent need for the development of new and more effective interventions for stroke patients across the world. A platform trial involves study of several different clinical questions at the same time, essentially uniting multiple clinical trials or ‘Domains’ under a single organisational structure lead by experts in the field. Adaptive design allows the team to add or collapse (if needed) research questions during the trial as more information is collected. We believe the adaptive platform approach is a uniquely flexible and efficient way to conduct ground-breaking research. The ACT-GLOBAL platform currently has several domains across the stroke-subtypes of Acute Ischemic Stroke, where a bloc
