Description

The search strategies looked for information on four concepts: climate change; communicable diseases with pandemic potential or economic evaluation; data systems; Africa. The search strategy was compiled in the OvidSP Medline ALL database and refined until the results retrieved reflected the scope of the project. 6 databases were searched on 27 November 2023. They were: OvidSP Medline ALL, OvidSP Embase Classic+Embase, OvidSP Global Health, OvidSP Econlit, EBSCOhost Africa-Wide Information, Web of Science Core Collection (containing Science Citation Index Expanded, Social Sciences Citation Index, Arts & Humanities Citation Index, Conference Proceedings Citation Index Science, Conference Proceedings Citation Index Social Science & Humanities, Emerging Sources Citation Index). All searches were limited by date to items published 2010-present.
