Cochrane publish and share the highest quality health evidence for people, governments and organisations around the globe — from the World Health Organization to Wikipedia. Cochrane evidence aims to help you make informed decisions.

Vision and mission

Cochrane are an independent, diverse, global organization that collaborates to produce trusted synthesized evidence, make it accessible to all, and advocate for its use.

Their vision is a world of better health for all people, where decisions about health and care are informed by high-quality evidence.

How Cochrane can help

Cochrane evidence is recognised as the international gold standard for health information, as they don’t accept commercial sponsorship and their scientific methods are second to none. Instead of cherry-picking findings from one or two studies, they systematically assess all of the relevant and available studies on a specific health question or topic — with an eye to how each study is conducted and funded. You can access all our reviews online in the Cochrane Library.
