dc.description.abstractA three day intensive training workshop using the equitable impact sensitive tool (EQUIST) and knowledge translation (KT) was held in Edo State (Nigeria) to improve the knowledge and capacity of a maternal, newborn and child health (MNCH) implementation research team and policy makers. A modified "before and after" intervention study design was used, in which outcomes were measured both before the intervention (workshop) and after. Findings show that competence relevant to evidence-informed policymaking can be enhanced through training workshops. Among the most important health policy areas, where decision making is increasingly challenging are those related to maternal, newborn and child health (MNCH).en
