evidence on its own do not guarantee that the evidence will be demanded and used by decision-makers or health policymakers for decision making and policy formulation. Decision-makers, especially in poor resource settings, often confront ethical dilemmas about determining the best available evidence and its utilisation. This dilemma can be in conflict of evidence, scientific and ethical equipoise and competing evidence or interests. We propose developing and using the Value and Evidence-Based Decision Making and Practice (VEDMAP) framework in response to these challenges. VEDMAP is a flexible and straightforward mixed-methods decision-making modelling framework that aims to assist policy and decision making to explicitly use optimal values and rationally navigate conflicting evidence.<\/p><p>VEDMAP was invented by <a href=\"https:\/\/hepu.kuhes.ac.mw\/index.php\/staff-details\/\">Prof. Joseph Mfutso-Bengo<\/a> and the application was developed by <a href=\"https:\/\/hepu.kuhes.ac.mw\/index.php\/emmanuel\/\">Emmanuel Mnjowe<\/a>.<\/p><p>Find our publication <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S2590229623000060\">here<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Projects | VEDMAP &#8211;More Options&#8211; HTA VEDMAP Health Services Joint Fund Thanzi La Mawa DFF CHAM SLA Value for Money Health Financing Baseline Survey PUMA PROJECT DESCRIPTION The existence and availability of evidence on its own do not guarantee that the evidence will be demanded and used by decision-makers or health policymakers for decision making [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-855","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hepu.kuhes.ac.mw\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/855","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hepu.kuhes.ac.mw\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hepu.kuhes.ac.mw\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hepu.kuhes.ac.mw\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hepu.kuhes.ac.mw\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=855"}],"version-history":[{"count":56,"href":"https:\/\/hepu.kuhes.ac.mw\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/855\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2741,"href":"https:\/\/hepu.kuhes.ac.mw\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/855\/revisions\/2741"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hepu.kuhes.ac.mw\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=855"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
