Global Evidence Ecosystem for Oral Health (GEEOH)

A conceptual framework for dynamic healthcare evidence ecosystems was initially developed in 2013 by MAGIC, an international group of collaborating researchers. Cochrane Oral Health further developed MAGIC's ecosystem concept for application specifically in oral health in 2018; this was enabled by our existing international colleagues as well as ongoing broad collaborations with MAGIC and other key groups.

The Global Evidence Ecosystem for Oral Health (GEEOH) is a joint vision to create co-ordinated efficient responses for incorporating new evidence. It expands engagement to include other oral health evidence synthesisers and guideline development groups. The GEEOH broadens our existing international networks, focusing on sustainable evidence production and a transformational model of evidence development

The GEEOH collectively aims to produce trustworthy evidence that is globally adaptable to our end-users' needs, by coordinating common methodological standards, using digitally-structured data platforms and establishing a culture of sharing and innovationThe GEEOH offers an exemplary opportunity to reduce research waste, avoid duplication of effort, and close the loop between new evidence and improved care by involving international organisations with responsibility and contributions at different stages of the ecosystem.
