Why this Colloquium matters

The 2026 Colloquium is more than an event, it’s a moment of transformation. As Cochrane evolves toward a publishing model built for real time, policy relevant, continuously updated evidence, this meeting will bring together the people and ideas needed to accelerate that shift.

Across plenaries, workshops, debates, and hands on sessions, participants will explore:

• Building a stronger evidence ecosystem with real feedback loops between primary research and synthesis

• AI enabled processes that speed up evidence production while protecting trust, transparency, and quality

• Equitable global partnerships and governance models that reflect regional priorities

• Innovations for living and real time evidence across health and development sectors

• Strategies to counter misinformation and rebuild trust in evidence

Kraków will be buzzing with energy, ideas, and collaboration — a perfect setting to challenge assumptions, test new approaches, and co create the future of evidence.

Be part of the transformation

Whether you’re driving methodological innovation, shaping policy, building digital tools, or championing evidence in your community, your voice belongs in this conversation. The Colloquium brings together the people who are redefining how evidence is produced, synthesised, and used; and we want you there.

Secure your place today and join us in Kraków this December for a Colloquium that promises to be bold, collaborative, and truly transformative.
