The panel will explore how health equity can move from theory into practice by centering the voices, knowledge, and leadership of those most impacted by health inequities. Bringing together practitioners and advocates with experience working alongside underserved communities, the panel will highlight locally and regionally driven approaches that aim to strengthen health services and other global health initiatives through community participation, accountability, and equitable collaborations. Through concrete examples, the panel will leave audience members with practical insights into how equity can be meaningfully embedded throughout the design, implementation, and evaluation of global health initiatives with diverse underserved populations, in Canada and abroad.

Step into a fast-moving, climate-driven zoonotic outbreak in this 90-minute Rapid Response Simulation. Working in teams, participants will develop and pitch a response to an unfolding scenario, with the winning team recognized at the closing ceremony.

Insufficiently staffed and under-resourced health systems and stigma contribute to the large unmet need for quality sexual and reproductive health (SRH) services globally. Health professionals are often expected to deliver high-quality care despite limited training opportunities and limited resources. Evidence shows that strengthening technical competencies and provider attitudes toward respectful, inclusive care can significantly improve service quality and health outcomes. Through Oxfam-Québec's Power to Choose program, health professionals were supported to refresh their technical skills, expand their scope of practice and to adopt more inclusive attitudes. This session will share the impact of investing in on-the-job training and mentorship for health professionals. 

Participants will learn how training and mentoring models for health professionals can improve the quality of SRH services, drawing on experiences from Ghana, Lebanon and Palestine. They will identify key design and implementation elements that support sustained improvements in knowledge, attitudes, and practices.

This interactive session features perspectives from people in different positions in three health systems: a midwife in Ghana, a representative from the Lebanese Order of Midwives, and a representative from Juzoor, the only certified Palestinian training center for Advanced Life Support in Obstetrics. Presentations will highlight practical experiences in delivering competency-based interdisciplinary training with simulations and regular, supportive mentorship. Changes in technical knowledge, attitudes and clinical practices will be presented drawing on pre- and post-tests and evaluations. The session will also demonstrate how mentorship programs can develop trusting relationships over time and support adoption of rights-based care and shifts in attitudes on previously taboo topics including abortion in Ghana and sexual pleasure in Lebanon. Participants will discuss adapting these experiences to their contexts.

On-the-job training and mentoring can improve knowledge, attitudes and practices of health professionals, ultimately enhancing quality of care.  Key success factors include hands-on, competency-based training, sustained mentorship, safe space to address sensitive topics and strong local ownership.  Interdisciplinary training strengthens teamwork and emergency response. Aligning training initiatives with national systems and priorities enhances sustainability and impact. These experiences demonstrate how investing in health workforce capacity contributes to improved health outcomes, even in fragile and low resources settings.

Community-Based Surveillance (CBS) enables the systematic detection and reporting of public health events by trained community volunteers in real time. By extending traditional surveillance to the community level, CBS empowers local actors to identify health threats early and trigger rapid responses.

Within the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement (RCM), CBS has been adopted as a core component of the Community Epidemic and Pandemic Preparedness Programme (CP3). The RCM has developed a standardized CBS methodology in which community-selected volunteers detect and report health signals via SMS messages to trained supervisors who verify alerts and escalate them through established pathways to local health authorities. This approach is designed to complement, not replace, formal national surveillance systems by filling critical detection gaps at the community level, particularly in fragile, resource-constrained, and crisis-affected settings where traditional indicator-based surveillance may not reach. The CBS model operates through close coordination with Ministries of Health and relies on digital platforms to enable real-time data collection, aggregation, and analysis for rapid public health decision-making.

Despite growing adoption, the evidence base for CBS remains largely descriptive. Questions about when and where CBS is most appropriate have become urgent in the face of global humanitarian funding cuts. Decision-makers urgently need evaluative evidence to prioritize interventions that offer the greatest added value in specific contexts. This symposium presents a convergent parallel mixed-methods evaluation conducted through the Canadian Field Epidemiology Program (Public Health Agency of Canada / Canadian Red Cross) that assessed CBS appropriateness across implementation contexts.

The evaluation triangulates multiple data sources to determine whether CBS is acceptable to stakeholders, timely enough to function as an early warning system, and useful in producing actionable public health data, and critically, in which contexts these attributes hold.

To ground the evaluation findings in practice, the symposium will feature a case study illustrating CBS implementation in a specific operational context. The case study, to be selected and presented during the session, will demonstrate how the CBS model was adapted to local conditions, the challenges encountered during deployment, and the measurable outcomes achieved in terms of early detection and community engagement. This real-world example will serve as a focal point for panel discussion, allowing participants to critically examine the translation of evaluation evidence into operational decision-making.

By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

1. Describe the CBS model and how it complements traditional public health surveillance in resource-constrained and crisis-affected settings.
2. Critically appraise how the evaluation attributes of acceptability, timeliness, and usefulness can be applied to assess community-led surveillance interventions.
3. Identify the implementation contexts in which CBS is perceived as most effective, as well as contexts where it may not warrant prioritization, based on evaluation findings.
4. Discuss strategies for sustaining community-led health interventions amid humanitarian funding fragmentation.
5. This symposium will combine short presentations with facilitated discussions by a panel.

Key topics will include:

• Operational design and implementation of CBS as a community-led early warning model within the RCM
• Mixed-methods evaluation design for assessing surveillance system attributes in humanitarian and low-resource contexts
• Stakeholder perspectives on CBS acceptability across community volunteers, National Society staff, and local health authorities
• Timeliness of CBS reporting and escalation pathways compared with traditional surveillance systems
• Usefulness of CBS data for public health decision-making and the conditions under which CBS data translates into action
• Contextual factors shaping CBS effectiveness, including fragile health systems, population mobility, and integration with national surveillance
• Sustaining community-driven surveillance models amid humanitarian funding contractions and the loss of donor-driven programming
• Translating evaluation evidence into advocacy tools for CBS integration into national health system architecture

MAIN MESSAGES

• CBS demonstrates that communities can serve as architects of their own health security when equipped with training, tools, and clear integration pathways into formal surveillance systems
• Evaluating CBS through acceptability, timeliness, and usefulness reveals that these attributes do not uniformly hold across all implementation settings, reinforcing the need for context-specific evidence to guide resource allocation
• Triangulating qualitative stakeholder perspectives with quantitative performance indicators strengthens the evidence base and supports accountability for community-led interventions
• Sustaining CBS beyond donor funding cycles requires transitioning from externally funded projects to locally owned components of national surveillance, co-developed with Ministries of Health
• Global health actors should prioritize evaluative over descriptive evidence for community-based programs to enable equitable, needs-driven investment in epidemic preparedness
• Action-oriented, community-centred approaches to surveillance can strengthen health equity and local resilience, particularly in underserved and crisis-affected communities

Global health research has been characterized by power imbalances, with the "Global North" setting agendas that may not fully reflect priorities of communities in the "Global South". This dynamic is particularly problematic in SRHR research and implementation where local contexts and voices are crucial. In a period of geopolitical uncertainty and renewed calls for decolonization, there is an urgent need to move from aspirational commitments to equitable, action‑oriented approaches. This session aims to facilitate peer-learning and reflection on how co-created, context driven SRHR research and implementation models can strengthen equity and health systems. The Addressing Neglected Areas of Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights in Sub-Saharan Africa (ANeSA) Initiative, co-funded by the International Development Research Centre, the Canadian Institutes for Health Research and Global Affairs Canada, will be presented as a practical model. ANeSA emphasizes equitable partnerships between researchers from Sub-Saharan Africa and Canada, alongside local civil society and decision-makers, to advance the realization of critical SRHR issues related to family planning and contraception, abortion, where legal, post-abortion care, adolescents, sexual and gender-based violence, and advocacy for underserved populations.

Participants will:

• Reflect on agenda-setting, power and funding in SRHR research and implementation.
• Understand how ANeSA shifts co-creation and implementation leadership to local actors.
• Identify practical strategies for nurturing equitable, trust‑based partnerships.
• Discuss ways to translate learnings into policy, practice, and scalable interventions. Presentations and discussions will explore how ANeSA and others operationalize locally led, co-created solutions to improve SRHR services access and delivery.

Topics include:

• Strengthening health systems, including supporting leadership by African researchers, decision makers, civil society organizations and communities.
• Advancing interventions addressing neglected SRHR, particularly in humanitarian settings or on politically sensitive topics such as internal displacement, child and forced marriage, or sex trafficking.
• Co-production for bridging implementation research and decision-making at local and national levels for greater impact.
  
  Global health equity requires deliberate power and leadership sharing between agenda-setters and local actors. The ANeSA Initiative demonstrates that when research and implementation are co‑created and led by those closest to the challenges and solutions, evidence is more relevant, actionable, and impactful.

Longstanding structural inequities in health and economic systems have disproportionately affected women in low and middle income countries, particularly those engaged in informal, precarious, or stigmatized forms of work. COVID-19 further intensified these inequities and risks to women's health and well being, underscoring a critical reality: women's health and well-being are foundational to the resilience of families, communities, and population level health outcomes, especially during crises.

This panel session will discuss how Women RISE research projects applied knowledge co-production methodologies -where researchers, decisionmakers, and communities jointly shape the research cycle-to generate impactful outcomes. Discussions will explore how projects implemented gender-transformative research through the lenses of equity, diversity, inclusion and justice. Panelists will share how engagement with sex workers, caregivers, community health care workers, and self‑employed women enhanced trust, improved data validity, and expanded access to populations often excluded from research and policy processes.

The session will highlight key evaluation findings of Women RISE projects, including institutionalized health service models, inclusive municipal ordinances, and strengthened community and policy leadership capacities. In addition, panelists will address research co‑production challenges and explore safeguarding mechanisms to mitigate potential unintended harms.

Women RISE is a CAD 24M research partnership funded by the International Development Research Centre (IDRC), the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC).

1. Share Women RISE outcomes, demonstrating how co-produced, gender transformative research addresses structural inequities and strengthens women's health and livelihoods.
2. Discuss practical approaches to research co-production with marginalized populations and decisionmakers across the research cycle.
3. Reflect on challenges and safeguarding in research co-production, identifying strategies to address power imbalances and mitigate unintended harms.

The session will feature Women RISE researchers, decisionmakers and a member of the initiative's evaluation team. Guided panel discussion will be followed by a Q&A session with the audience.

Expected outcomes:

Participants will gain insight on how co‑produced research with marginalized populations can advance equity and resilience in systems and communities, a clearer understanding of enabling conditions and challenges for co‑production, and practical considerations for applying gender‑transformative and inclusive research approaches.

Research co production can deliver high quality, policy relevant, and gender transformative outcomes by meaningfully engaging communities, beneficiaries, and decision makers. Inclusive research processes build trust, strengthen legitimacy, and accelerate evidence uptake and impact

We will present the short films produced through The Together Project 2.0 and lead an interactive, co-learning discussion. The goal of this youth-led project was to co-create two inclusive youth sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) education video series with and for youth living in situations of vulnerability who were underrepresented in ASRHR education programs. We mobilized youth as co-researchers, engaging with youth living in an urban slum (in Kallyanpur, Bangladesh) and living with disabilities (in Gulu, Uganda).

While youth-led methodologies and meaningful youth engagement have enormous transformative potential in global health, it remains difficult to translate knowledge into action with tangible results. By presenting The Together Project 2.0, including our methods, challenges and outcomes, the main objective is to co-learn with session participants about youth-led approaches in global health, exploring questions such as: How can we translate knowledge into action while engaging youth meaningfully, in complex global health contexts? How can we foster equitable power distribution between youth and researchers, and between international partners? How can we center youth's voices while navigating the tensions between international objectives and local benefits?

The session is organized in four sections:

• Presentation of The Together Project 2.0: objectives, background (Uganda and Bangladesh), methods, key challenges and lessons learned (10 minutes)
• Presentation the ASRHR education video series produced by youth in both countries, answering questions from the audience (30 minutes)
• Interactive discussion with the goal of co-learning and identifying concrete ways to foster youth-led approaches in global health ecosystems (40 minutes)
• Future perspectives (10 minutes)

We will present two examples of youth-led SRHR education video series to encourage participants to mobilize youth-led methodologies.

Participants will engage in a co-learning process to foster youth-led approaches in SRHR, while considering real-life challenges in global health. The goal is to bridge the gap between theory of meaningful youth engagement and global health practices and address difficult questions around participation. Overall, this session will provide new insights to support innovative, participatory methodologies sensitive to age, disability, gender and local context, for global health researchers and professionals engaging with youth.

For many years, health systems have faced major challenges on a global scale. Some diseases receive significant attention from health policymakers, whilst others remain largely neglected, to the detriment of the rights of certain populations. Noma is a striking example. Recognised in 2023 by the WHO as a neglected tropical disease, it is a gangrenous infection of the mouth caused by extreme poverty, malnutrition and poor hygiene, resulting in the death of up to 90% of those affected. It mainly affects children aged between 2 and 6, yet it is preventable and treatable at an early stage.

• Learn about noma (risk factors, progression, diagnosis, screening, management)
• Understand the realities experienced by survivors (stigmatisation, psychological and economic impact)
• Recognising the importance of person-centred and community-centred approaches
• Identifying practical ways to integrate neglected tropical diseases into existing health programmes
• Exploring ways to strengthen the inclusion of people with lived experience at the heart of health programmes

The workshop will take a two-part participatory approach.

The first phase will consist of a screening of the documentary 'Restoring Dignity' (52 minutes), which follows several noma survivors in north-western Nigeria over the course of a year. The film highlights the survivors' journeys by showing their reality, their challenges and their resilience in the face of stigma and difficulties in accessing care.

In the second part of the event, a group discussion will be held to share knowledge, identify key lessons and highlight actionable steps to advance the fight against noma. This discussion will include Mulikat Okanlawon, a noma survivor and president of Elysium, the first survivors' association.

• The discussion will focus on people with lived experience and communities, health equity, the fight against discrimination and community resilience.
  
  Personal accounts are essential for understanding hidden challenges and tailoring interventions to the needs of communities.
• Involving those directly affected helps to strengthen local and regional health systems and prevention programs.
• People with lived experience must be recognised as key stakeholders in health response in order to achieve greater equity.

Obstetric fistula is a preventable yet highly stigmatizing maternal health condition that disproportionately affects women in low-income settings. Beyond physical injury, women experience stigma, marginalization, and exclusion from family and community life. This study developed a grounded theory explaining the process of social inclusion following obstetric fistula repair in Ethiopia.

Participants will learn about the lived experiences of women after obstetric fistula repair in Ethiopia, including stigma, exclusion, and reintegration into family and community life. They will be introduced to a grounded theory of reclaiming the self, shaped by personal, relational, institutional, and structural factors.

Participants will also explore how health systems, community norms, and formal and informal support influence recovery beyond surgery. The session demonstrates arts-based knowledge translation through an Amharic documentary film with English subtitles to communicate qualitative findings and amplify marginalized voices.

This session presents lived experiences and a grounded theory of social inclusion centered on reclaiming the self. It discusses stigma, reintegration, support systems, and structural barriers, and explores arts-based knowledge translation through film.

The workshop is interactive, combining film screening with facilitated discussion. Participants will engage in guided reflection, small-group dialogue, and plenary sharing using a trauma-informed approach to support critical reflection on stigma, equity, and inclusion. Participants will gain increased understanding of obstetric fistula as a social and structural health issue, improved awareness of post-surgical reintegration challenges, and insights into arts-based knowledge translation for global health advocacy. They will also reflect on strengthening health and social support systems for marginalized women.

Obstetric fistula is not only a medical condition but a deeply social experience shaped by stigma, exclusion, and structural barriers that persist after surgery. Recovery involves a non-linear process of social reintegration and reclaiming the self, influenced by families, communities, and health systems.

The session highlights how documentary film can complement qualitative research by communicating lived experiences. The intended impact is to promote holistic, equity-focused responses that extend beyond surgical repair toward long-term social inclusion and dignity.

Diagnostic delay (DD) is a systems-level marker of health inequity that disproportionately affects women's health, yet it is rarely measured or redesigned. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) offers a revealing case; a common, chronic condition affecting fertility and long-term health, often misdiagnosed, underdiagnosed, or recognised only after years of delay. Contributing factors include fragmented care pathways, limited clinical awareness, gender bias, stigma, and racialised inequities in access to culturally responsive care. During delays, patients continue to suffer from symptoms, experience disruptions to daily life and relationships and lose trust in health systems.

This workshop introduces Diagnostic Journey Mapping (DJM), a participatory visual tool for identifying where and why care pathways break down. Designed for clinicians, patients, researchers, and community organisations, DJM makes hidden barriers visible, integrates lived-experience insights with systems thinking, and positions all stakeholders as co-producers of change. Using PCOS as an illustrative case, participants will explore how diagnostic delay reveals broader inequities across conditions and settings.

Participants will:

1. Examine how diagnostic delays are produced at the healthcare systems level.
2. Apply the DJM tool to a care pathway relevant to their practice, research, or policy.
3. Identify opportunities for intervention across clinical, research, and community settings.
4. Translate lived-experience insights into actionable implementation strategies.

This 90-minute session combines brief framing with facilitated group work.

Participants will apply the DJM tool in small groups to map stages in a care pathway, including symptom recognition, care-seeking, referrals, delays, and system barriers.

Guided discussion will support participants in identifying patterns, fragmentation points, and opportunities to improve equity, trust, and continuity of care. The session concludes with a collaborative synthesis in which participants generate transferable recommendations for integrating DJM into research, service design, and health systems strengthening.

Diagnostic delay is a measurable, addressable, and too often overlooked signal of inequity within health systems. Early diagnosis can reduce disease burden, improve care pathways, and strengthen trust. DJM offers a transferable tool to identify intervention points and inform responsive care design. Advancing global health equity requires expanding what counts as evidence and recognising community knowledge as part of building resilient systems.

Pandemic preparedness in Africa is entering an important new phase, shaped by lessons from COVID-19 and growing momentum around stronger, more equitable health systems. Across the continent, the pandemic revealed not only variation in vaccine access and uptake, but also the creativity, leadership, and adaptive capacity that enabled some countries and institutions to respond effectively under pressure. This symposium presents findings from the Strengthening Pandemic Vaccine Preparedness in Africa (SPAVPA) program, a multi-country, multi-method body of work examining what African health systems can teach us about readiness, coordination, implementation, and resilience. By bringing together findings from a systematic review, cross-country regression modelling, and ongoing qualitative research, the session will highlight both common challenges and promising strategies for strengthening future pandemic preparedness.

1. Examine how pandemic vaccine preparedness in Africa is shaped by governance, institutional readiness, implementation capacity, and adaptive learning.
2. Compare insights generated through systematic review, cross-country regression modelling, and qualitative systems research.
3. Identify promising strategies and practical lessons for strengthening equitable and resilient preparedness systems in African settings.
4. Translate multi-method evidence into actionable priorities for policy, implementation, and accountability.

The symposium will be organized around three complementary evidence streams. It will open with framing remarks that position pandemic preparedness as a systems challenge and an opportunity for cross-country learning, innovation, and institutional strengthening. The first presentation will synthesize findings from a systematic review on barriers, facilitators, and implementation experiences shaping COVID-19 vaccine delivery across African contexts. The second will present cross-country regression modelling results identifying structural, governance, and health system factors associated with vaccine delivery performance. The third will draw on qualitative insights from policymakers and implementers, including emerging country-level findings, to explore how systems adapted under pressure and what strengths became visible in practice. The session will conclude with an integrated discussion on lessons for implementation, accountability, and equitable preparedness, with emphasis on how evidence can be translated into stronger systems and future action.

Pandemic preparedness in Africa should be understood not only through the lens of constraints, but also through the strengths, innovations, and adaptive capacities that emerged during COVID-19. Multi-method evidence shows that governance, coordination, implementation capacity, and institutional learning are central to effective vaccine delivery under pressure. Cross-country learning can help identify practical strategies for strengthening readiness and resilience before the next crisis. Advancing global health equity requires sustained investment in system readiness, accountability, and locally grounded leadership.

Digital health systems are expanding rapidly across disease programs and public health functions, yet fragmentation, weak interoperability, and governance gaps continue to limit their impact on health equity and system performance. In tuberculosis (TB), digital tools span the care cascade-from care-seeking and screening to diagnosis and treatment-but often operate in silos across public, private, and community providers. These challenges mirror those seen in Canada and globally during COVID-19, where limitations in data sharing and system integration constrained real-time decision-making. In a fragmented and uncertain global health landscape, digital systems must move beyond technical solutions to address governance, trust, and equity. Using TB as a case study, this symposium will examine how interoperable digital systems can strengthen public health surveillance, support equitable service delivery, and enable data-driven decision-making across contexts, including relevance for Canada's evolving public health surveillance and digital health governance systems.

• To examine how fragmented digital systems affect equity and system performance
• To analyze interoperability and governance challenges across global and Canadian contexts
• To explore how digital systems can strengthen public health surveillance and decision-making
• To identify practical policy and implementation priorities for integrated, people-centered systems

This 90-minute symposium will use a structured, case-informed policy dialogue format. Presentations will combine global implementation experience, Canadian public health perspectives, and interdisciplinary research on digital systems. Speakers will examine care-seeking pathways, interoperability challenges, surveillance integration, and equity implications. The session will include short presentations followed by moderated discussion and audience engagement to identify actionable strategies for integrating digital systems across providers and levels of care.

1. Care-Seeking Pathways and Data Gaps in Digital TB Systems (Charity Oga-Omenka)
2. Implementing Digital TB Systems in Fragmented Markets (Razia Fatima)
3. Public Health Surveillance and Data Integration in Canada (PHAC)
4. Equity, Trust, and Power in Digital Health Systems (Warren Dodd)
5. From Tools to Systems: Designing Interoperable Ecosystems (Plinio Morita) 6. Panel Discussion (30 min)

Reclaiming global health equity requires interoperable, people-centered digital systems that integrate data across providers and settings. Lessons from TB programs highlight the importance of aligning technical design with governance, trust, and equity considerations. This symposium will generate practical recommendations for strengthening digital health systems, including in Canada, by advancing interoperability, improving surveillance integration, and supporting equitable, data-driven decision-making in a fragmented global context.

• Fragmented digital systems limit continuity of care, data visibility, and equitable access across providers
• Interoperability challenges persist across public, private, and community sectors in both LMIC and Canadian contexts
• Integrated digital ecosystems can improve surveillance, enable targeted interventions, and support more equitable service delivery
• Governance, trust, and provider engagement are critical determinants of successful digital system implementation

Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) systems are fundamental to advancing women's health, gender equality, and evidence-based decision-making. However, a persistent gap between data generation and policy action often limits their transformative potential. Led by UNFPA in partnership with IDRC, this session explores how countries are bridging this divide by translating CRVS data into scalable, high-impact interventions through integrated system strengthening, innovative tools, and sustained policy engagement.

Drawing on implementation experiences across Africa, Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, and the Arab States, the session demonstrates how strategic investments in CRVS-including legal reforms, national strategies, sustainable financing, and digital integration-drive measurable improvements in service delivery and accountability. It will highlight practical approaches to strengthening data production, including cause-of-death reporting and registration completeness, while emphasizing the inclusion of marriage and divorce records as vital components of women's legal protection and socioeconomic empowerment.

Using case studies from Pakistan, Georgia, Uruguay, Kenya, Rwanda, Ghana, and Jordan, the session presents evidence on how CRVS insights inform critical policy decisions and catalyze transformative change. Examples include leveraging maternal mortality data to guide health investments, utilizing birth registration to expand service access, and applying marriage and divorce data to safeguard women's rights. These diverse experiences illustrate successful North-South, South-South, and North-North learning pathways and contextual adaptations.

The session also introduces actionable tools developed through the UNFPA-IDRC collaboration and the Centre of Excellence for CRVS Systems, including guidelines, policy briefs, analytical frameworks, and training manuals. The use of multimedia storytelling, including videos and digital exhibits, will further illustrate how CRVS evidence is effectively translated into advocacy and policy influence at both national and global levels.

With an emphasis on accountability, equity, and resilience, this session provides practical guidance for transitioning from pilot projects to institutionalized, sustainable CRVS systems. It further examines how these systems function as interoperable digital public infrastructure, linking health, legal identity, and social protection ecosystems to support comprehensive, whole-of-government responses.

By showcasing tested methodologies and country-driven innovations, this session equips policymakers, practitioners, and researchers with concrete strategies to harness CRVS systems as engines for improved women's health outcomes, gender equality, and inclusive development.

* Lightning presentations * Panel discussion * Audience interactive Q&A and discussion

Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) systems are fundamental to advancing women's health, gender equality, and evidence-based decision-making. However, a persistent gap between data generation and policy action often limits their transformative potential. This session will highlight important advances in strengthening legal identity, gender equality and health access across the life course via strengthened civil registration systems. It will showcase key insights and advances from Pakistan, Georgia, Uruguay, Kenya, Rwanda, Ghana, and Jordan and highlight challenges and opportunities for sustained strengthening of inclusive health systems and digital public infrastructure.

Building on insights shared in the panel "Lessons from the Women RISE Initiative," (submitted by F. Sinzinkayo at IDRC) this workshop deepens the conversation on research co-production-the collaborative generation of knowledge between researchers and those who use it-to explore how co-production can be systematically assessed and strengthened. Research co-production is essential to ensuring that research is useful, usable, and used.

However, traditional evaluation approaches often struggle to capture critical dimensions of co production, including partnership quality, power dynamics, and enabling environments. To address this gap, the evaluation of Women RISE deliberately applied the Research Quality Plus for Co Production (RQ+ 4 Co Pro) framework to assess how projects generated contextually relevant and effective evidence. This workshop introduces participants to RQ+ 4 Co Pro as a practical extension of the panel discussion, translating reflective lessons into an applied evaluation lens.

RQ+ 4 Co-Pro is a holistic tool grounded in three core tenets: context matters, quality is multi dimensional, and appraisal must be empirical. The session will explore how these principles can be understood, applied, and adapted across diverse settings. Women RISE grantees will contribute perspectives during the session, offering illustrative reflections on both the opportunities and challenges of co-production in practice.

1. Apply the three foundational tenets of the RQ+ 4 Co-Pro framework to reflect on real-world global health research across contexts.
2. Utilize systematic rubrics to examine multiple dimensions of research quality including legitimacy, power-sharing, and intersectionality.
3. Explore the relationship between research process quality and actionability for policy and practice.

The workshop will combine short presentations, guided discussion, and applied reflection to support learning. Participants may engage with illustrative project materials and examples from Women RISE to collectively examine how research quality is assessed using RQ+ 4 Co-Pro. Opportunities for dialogue-potentially including reflections from grantees-will support shared learning and critical exchange, with facilitation adapted to participant engagement and group size.

Evaluation is not just a post-hoc audit but a developmental tool for learning and capacity strengthening. By building on the lessons highlighted in the Women RISE panel and applying tools like RQ+ 4 Co-Pro, participants can advance co-production as a core condition for equitable and actionable impact.
