This activity will include alignment with the MCBK vision, as stated in the Manifesto, of ensuring that the knowledge that has been gathered by our community properly reflects the best and most current evidence and science, which will, in turn, safeguard that the knowledge can be trusted for use to improve health and healthcare.
