Abstract:
Reflecting a broader movement toward knowledge democratization, coproducing Cochrane evidence with interest holders outside universities is increasingly encouraged. However, only limited research exists on the approaches used to coproduce Cochrane reviews. Furthermore, the outcomes of coproduction are rarely described. In this commentary, we aim to address these gaps by describing the process and outcomes of coproduction used in a recently published Cochrane qualitative evidence synthesis (QES). We also reflect on power imbalances in our coproduction approach and how these could be minimized in future review coproduction activities.
