Background
The EPPI Centre was created in 1995 by founding director Ann Oakley and is part of the Social Science Research Unit within the UCL Social Research Institute.
Our mission is to promote and support collaborative, rigorous evidence for a fairer world, by focusing on the following:
- Evidence synthesis methods: Developing state-of-the-art reliable evidence synthesis methods and tools, fusing optimised inputs from people, processes and enabling technologies.
- Participation: Employing meaningful and ethical approaches for people from diverse backgrounds to take part in generating and using evidence for the public good.
- Research impact: Supporting mobilisation of research knowledge so that it can be used to make a positive, meaningful and equitable difference to people’s lives.
- Capacity building: Developing skills, processes, structures and cultures conducive to research-informed policy and policy-relevant research.
