1 4TH Fuse International Conference ON KNOWLEDGE EXCHANGE IN PUBLIC HEALTH Research evidence for healthy public policy: Learning across jurisdictions and sectors MAY 8-10, 2018 VANCOUVER, BC Program Guide
2 WELCOME! Welcome to the 2018 Fuse International Conference on Knowledge Exchange in Public Health Welcome to the 2018 Fuse International Conference on Knowledge Exchange in Public Health. This is the fourth Fuse conference and the first one to be held in North America. On behalf of the conference co-hosts and Advisory Committee, we are excited to welcome you to beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia for what promises to be a stimulating and engaging two days of presentations and discussions. The theme of this year s conference is Research evidence for healthy public policy: Learning across jurisdictions and sectors. This theme resonates with the world we are living in today. Healthy public policy aims to promote and protect the health of all citizens and yet we find ourselves in a time where the more information and intelligence we have to guide public and population health improvement, the harder it is to transfer that knowledge into policy and action. Public policy decisions seem to be driven by fundamentalism and populism. Psychologist and polymath Steven Pinker may be right, globally, overall selective indicators of the social determinants of health are moving in the right direction. But imagine where we could be if the knowledge we have were fully transferred into policy and action. To explore the conference theme, presentations will cover five sub-themes economic evidence, practice-based evidence, communicating evidence, diversity in public health policy, and partnerships between researchers and policymakers and will address cross-cutting issues such as public and community engagement, data management, intersectoral partnerships, and impact of jurisdictional issues. We will learn from our invited speakers and from each other on how best to produce, integrate and communicate research evidence to help develop and evaluate policies in public health. Together, we will explore the use of research evidence in public health policy-making from around the world to discover what s working, what s not, and what trends, issues, and policy-related challenges are appearing across jurisdictions and sectors. We ve built lots of opportunities for conversations into the sessions and time for networking in between. We hope you will take full advantage of the expertise at the conference and the opportunity to share your expertise with others. Fuse 2018 is co-hosted by four organizations: Fuse The Centre for Translational Research in Public Health (UK), the BC Ministry of Health, the Public Health Association of BC, and the Michael Smith Foundation for Health Research here in Vancouver. Sincerely, Conference Co-Chairs: Dr. Elinor Wilson Board Chair, Michael Smith Foundation for Health Research Dr. Perry Kendall Former Provincial Health Officer, British Columbia Ministry of Health

6 ABOUT Conference theme & sub-themes Protecting the health of their citizens and preventing illness is a fundamental priority for communities, regions and countries around the world. Most have plans in place to guide their efforts and good public policy is integral to the success of those plans. As those working in the area know, developing policies in public health is not an easy task. There are many factors to consider: competing priorities, constrained resources, intersectoral barriers, ideology, changing structure, public opinion, and increasingly complex problems for which solutions are not obvious. Given these factors, what are the best ways to define how to structure the delivery, funding, and prioritizing of population and public health? Research evidence is an ideal foundation for good policy but more effort is needed to integrate all forms of evidence, including conflicting evidence, to support policymaking. There will be a focus in this conference on both the practice and the science behind using evidence to inform public health policies. Presentations from various jurisdictions will focus on five themes: PRACTICE-BASED EVIDENCE Practice-based evidence or evidence from the field - acknowledges that traditional measures on efficacy or effectiveness are only one kind of input necessary for policy-making. Effective policy also requires appreciation of the expertise of providers and understanding of the context faced by those who will implement and be affected by the policy. This sub theme will explore ways to develop and integrate various types of evidence from a range of settings and stakeholders into public health policy. ECONOMIC EVIDENCE Economic evaluations provide explicit information on the costs and consequences of different courses of action and can provide a framework for thinking about the structure of decisions. Economic evaluations can have a significant impact in policy making but there are many factors that influence whether or not that happens. This sub theme will explore the utility of economic evidence and the challenges presented by the environment or context, quality of the evidence, the structure of the decision-making process itself, and how the information is presented FuseConference.ca
7 COMMUNICATING EVIDENCE Evidence-informed policy-making depends not only on the existence and availability of appropriate evidence but on the effective communication of that evidence. The obstacles to effective communication between researchers and policy-makers (any of various stakeholders involved in developing policy, from analysts to senior decision makers to elected officials) are well documented in literature and recent years have seen some improvements in overcoming those obstacles. This sub theme will explore how best to strengthen communication of evidence for policy-making through new and emerging communication tools, mechanisms and strategies. DIVERSITY IN PUBLIC HEALTH POLICY Evidence-informed policy must be sensitive and responsive to differences in culture, geography, gender, race/ethnicity (including Indigenous identity), age, physical or mental ability, spirituality, family status, language ability, literacy, socio-economic status, and immigration/refugee status. Effective policy making requires thinking critically about how diverse stakeholders create, accept, and use evidence in accordance with their values, beliefs, histories, lived experiences, and ways of knowing. This sub theme will explore the challenges and successes in conducting policy research that welcomes diversity and in building a diversity of evidence into public policy. PARTNERSHIPS BETWEEN RESEARCHERS AND POLICY-MAKERS Researchers and policy makers are united in their support of evidence-informed policy making but often work independently toward that goal. A partnership will mean additional demands on both parties but the benefits can be improved relevance, validity and reliability of research, and increased understanding and trust between researchers and policy makers. But partnerships between these two groups are not always easy to develop or maintain. This sub theme will provide examples of partnered or team approaches to specific policy issues. With these themes, attention will be paid to cross-cutting issues such as public and community engagement, issues around data, public and patient involvement, inter-sectoral partnerships, complexity and impact of jurisdictional issues. We would like to acknowledge that Fuse 2018 takes place on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh peoples. #FuseKEC18 7
