Description
The Lancet–Elsevier Foundation Evidence to Impact Award supports research teams addressing pressing health challenges by translating evidence into practical interventions. It emphasizes implementation science: studying how interventions are put into practice or helping put them into practice. The award seeks context-specific approaches that can be sustained and adapted across settings, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.
Projects may address non-communicable or infectious diseases, malnutrition, or gaps in healthcare access. The award values collaboration among researchers, healthcare providers, policymakers, and community members, with local communities helping shape and carry out the work.
