Evidence synthesis is the process of systematically collecting, evaluating, and combining findings from multiple studies on a specific topic to draw more reliable and comprehensive conclusions. It aims to summarize the existing body of research to inform decision-making in fields such as healthcare, education, social policy, and environmental science. One type of example is systematic reviews, among others.
Basically, evidence synthesis enhances the clarity and strength of what is known by
identifying consistent findings, gaps, and contradictions across studies.
