The Nordic GRADE Network aims to advance the use of GRADE for evidence-informed decision making for policy and practice in the Nordic countries, i.e. Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Norway. The Network will build on the extensive research and training experience of individuals within the Network to coordinate and maximize GRADE training, research and guideline activities in the Nordic countries.
The Network aims to bring together contributors to GRADE within the Nordic countries, to then jointly agree on the priorities and strategies for advancing GRADE activities. The proposed GRADE network will be well placed to contribute to capacity-building and enhanced use of GRADE methodology within the Nordic countris. We would aim to link with and support researchers, policymakers and methodologists in use of and training in GRADE for systematic reviews and guidelines.
The network started in 2022 as the Scandinavian GRADE network, but the name was changed to Nordic GRADE network in October 2024 when our Finnish colleagues joined.
