Call for African-led teams to shape high-impact systematic reviews on climate and health in Africa

Applications are open for teams of experts to lead a series of living systematic reviews gathering and synthesizing evidence on some of the most promising interventions that address pressing climate and health challenges in the African continent. 

The reviews are intended to support the scientific evidence base global science assessments. 

At least five teams will be selected. Teams are African-led and include early career researchers. You bring the priorities and insight — we’ll pair you with the technical assistance through experienced systematic reviewers and tailored training and synthesis support to produce high-quality, policy-relevant outputs.

Please note, this call provides technical assistance (support and training), not direct funding.
