Measuring capacity to use evidence-based interventions in community-based organizations: A comprehensive, scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Community-based organizations (CBOs) are well-positioned to incorporate research evidence, local expertise, and contextual factors to address health inequities.

To advance the literature, we conducted a comprehensive scoping review.

Methods

With a reference librarian, we executed a comprehensive search strategy of PubMed/Medline, Web of Science Core Collection, and EBSCO Global Health. We included articles that addressed implementation science, capacity-building, and CBOs. Of 5527 articles, 99 met our inclusion criteria, and
