Evidence published or presented in a peer-reviewed format
A quality improvement activity that is relevant to others beyond your local situation –g. other organization or countries
The outcomes of an implementation strategy e.g., a state or national change in practice that has produced positive outcomes for patients and health

Priority will be given to workshops that meet the following criteria:

Include speakers from multiple disciplines and regions
Consider gender diversity and early career
