Health systems are comprised of networks of people connected by complex pathways between care delivery, programming, planning and policy Every day, people in these networks navigate service needs while facing ever-changing circumstances. Using research evidence to inform how we navigate these demands is essential to finding and testing responsive solutions that promote health (Global Ministerial Forum for Research on Health, 2008). Despite the value of evidence to improve health outcomes and meet needs, a gap between knowledge and action persists
