As noncommunicable diseases continue to place a growing burden on health systems across South-East Asia, the Faculty of Nursing, Mahidol University, designated as a WHO Collaborating Centre for Nursing and Midwifery Development together with the MU-JHU NCD Research Collaborative Center, is hosting the WHO SEARO Systematic Review Workshop 2026 via Zoom from 16 May to 13 June 2026.

The workshop, which has already commenced, brings together 30 professional nurses from 11 countries in the WHO South-East Asia Region to strengthen their capacity in systematic review, evidence appraisal, data synthesis, and manuscript development. By the end of the program, participants are expected to produce review outlines or draft manuscripts to support evidence-based policy, clinical practice, and regional collaboration in NCD management.
