Hybrid Side event at the 2024 Prince Mahidol Award Conference23 January 2024, Bangkok, ThailandThe Evidence Unit of the WHO Global Centre for Traditional Medicine and the WHO Evidence to Policy and Impact Unit (Research for Health Department), are hosting a collaborative side event at the 2024 Prince Mahidol Award Conference (PMAC) exploring the current state of Evidence-informed policy-making (EIDM) institutionalization globally and the implications of its intersections with Traditional, Complementary, and Integrative Medicine (TCIM) in fostering inclusivity, health equity, epistemic justice, and decolonial global health governance. The side event will explore potential mechanisms (infrastructure, conditions, frameworks) for enhancing the use of evidence in global policy development toward realizing TCIM’s contribution to health and wellbeing. The use of evidence in policy and decision-making has exponentially grown, and it is now considered standard practice within health systems.
