The Canadian Cochrane Network and Centre(CCNC) shares The Cochrane Collaboration's vision : Healthcare decision making throughout the world will be informed by high quality, timely research evidence. The Cochrane Collaboration will play a pivotal role in the production and dissemination of this evidence across all areas of health care. While the CCNC supports Collaboration's worldwide efforts, our focus is on making this vision a reality in Canada. The mission is to foster evidence-based healthcare decision making by identifying and supporting individuals in Canada who wish to become involved with the Cochrane Collaboration, and by promoting the awareness, appreciation, distribution and use of Cochrane systematic reviews of healthcare intervention. 1, record 2, English, - Canadian%20Cochrane%20Network%20and%20Centre

Le Réseau-centre canadien Cochrane (R-CCC) partage la vision de la Collaboration Cochrane : La prise de décisions en matière de soins de santé sera guidée par des données de recherche opportunes de haute qualité et cela, à l'échelle mondiale. À ce titre, la Collaboration Cochrane jouera un rôle primordial dans la production et la diffusion de ces données dans tous les domaines des soins de santé. Bien que nous appuyions les efforts entrepris par Collaboration aux quatre coins du globe, le Réseau-centre canadien Cochrane vise à faire de cette vision une réalité au Canada. La mission est de favoriser la prise de décisions fondée sur des données probantes en matière de soins de santé en identifiant et en soutenant au Canada les personnes qui souhaitent contribuer à la Collaboration Cochrane, ainsi qu'en cherchant à promouvoir l'existence, la distribution et l'utilisation des revues systématiques d'études Cochrane sur les effets des interventions cliniques. 1, record 2, French, - R%C3%A9seau%2Dcentre%20canadien%20Cochrane
