Introduction:
Literature reviews are a powerful tool to summarize research evidence. In this capacity building webinar, several members of the PHIRI (Population Health Research Infrastructure) project will share their experience applying different approaches to manage literature reviews summarising COVID-19 research. The course will start with a presentation about the types of reviews and basic concepts of literature reviews of population studies, including the methodological steps of these types of studies and the differences between the types of outcomes. In the second part, researchers from PHIRI will share their experiences performing literature reviews on COVID-19 evidence. Finally, a practical exercise will be conducted using the free online tool Rayyan.
