The use of co-production, co-design and co-creation to mobilise knowledge in the management of health conditions: a systematic review

Abstract Background Knowledge mobilisation is a term used in healthcare research to describe the process of generating, sharing and using evidence. ‘Co’approaches, such as co-production, co-design and co-creation, have been proposed as a way of overcoming the knowledge to practice gap.
