The Cochrane Collaboration (http://www.cochrane.org) is an international, non-profit organization that prepares and disseminates up-to-date systematic reviews on the effects of healthcare interventions in order to help people make well-informed decisions. Systematic reviews aim to answer focused healthcare questions by systematically identifying and evaluating all relevant research studies and synthesizing their results.

If you are interested in contributing to the Cochrane Column or The Cochrane Collaboration, contact me at the South African Cochrane Centre.

A summary of Cochrane reviews (and protocols) of relevance to health promotion and public health can be viewed on the Cochrane Health Promotion and Public Health website: http://www.vichealth.vic.gov.au/cochrane/
