Public Health Research, Evaluation and Policy

Specialty areas:

The overall aims of the Centre for Public Health Research, Evaluation, and Policy (C-PHREP) are to improve public health programs and policies through high quality research, program evaluations, and policy analysis, especially in the areas of health economics, child public health and obesity prevention.  The group vision is to work closely with decision-makers on the key questions they are facing in improving public health (especially around the major health threats to children) and to bring quality evidence to bear on the decision-making about resource allocation, policy implementation and other strategic actions they may take.
