Knowledge Base

Curated resources for public health leaders, decision-makers, designers, implementers and funders to better deliver effective campaigns and strengthen health systems to improve health outcomes and equity for all people

CAS Resources

We have hand-selected the most recent and relevant research and knowledge products sourced from across the
health campaign ecosystem, centered on three key thematic areas: campaign planning & implementation;
monitoring, evaluation, research, learning and adaptation (MERLA); and campaign financing. Explore these three
key pillars of the health campaign lifecycle and of the Collaborative Action Strategy on Health Campaign
Effectiveness (CAS).
