The Report focuses on bridging of the "know do" gap, the gulf between what
we know and what we do in practice, between scientific potential and health
realization. The bridging of this gap is central to achieving the
health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDG’s) by 2015. The gap exists
for each of the MDG’s and represents a fundamental and pragmatic knowledge
translation challenge that must be addressed to strengthen health systems
performance towards achieving the MDG’s.

The Report will expound the message that we must turn scientific knowledge
into actions, which improves people’s health, and that health improvement
through knowledge applications is a critical factor in human development
and alleviation of ill-health and poverty worldwide.

The Report will be highlighted at the World Ministerial Summit on Health
Research in Mexico (November 16-20, 2004).
