The COVID-19 pandemic exposed critical gaps in how evidence and knowledge inform decision-making during crises. In times of crisis, decisions must be made quickly, often under uncertainty, making the efficient flow of knowledge from experts to decision-makers essential. Understanding and improving these knowledge pathways is vital to ensuring effective, evidence-based responses that protect public health and save lives.

Belgian Pandemic Intelligence Network (BE-PIN)

Focusing on Belgium's response to COVID-19, BE PIN analyzes how scientific expertise, data, and real-time intelligence were mobilized. By learning from this experience, we aim to propose innovative solutions for strengthening the bridge between evidence and policy during future health emergencies.
