Each year on 20 October, we celebrate World Evidence-Based Healthcare (EBHC) Day. Once again, Cochrane First Aid is proud to be Evidence Ambassador. 

This year’s theme, Collaborative Knowledge Communication, highlights the importance of sharing, interpreting, and applying evidence together to improve health outcomes worldwide.

For this year’s campaign, we are contributing in several ways:

• Discover how we make evidence accessible, understandable, and actionable in our latest blog post;
• Explore key insights from the Cochrane Review on First aid training for laypeople in our infographic;
• Watch our Field Coordinator, Jorien Laermans, and others in the Connected Conversations video series. The first video, Building trust and addressing misinformation, is now available on YouTube.  

Our colleagues of the Centre for Evidence-based Practice (CEBaP) are also a committed Evidence Ambassador. Learn more about their contributions on their website.

We are excited to join the global community in celebrating World EBHC Day 2025 — and we hope you will join us in promoting better health decisions through evidence!
