Using evidence and gap maps for the UN Decade of Healthy Ageing

What is an evidence and gap map? How do we use them during the UN Decade of Healthy Ageing to improve the lives of current and future generations of older people, their families, and their communities?

Evidence and gap maps are interactive tools that help researchers and decision makers discover existing evidence on a given topic, find solutions supported by evidence, and identify gaps in the evidence where more research is required.

In this video, learn more about WHO's work to develop evidence and gap maps as part of a multi-year project for the Decade to summarise, disseminate, and increase the uptake of evidence towards deeper integration within policy and practice.
