Observatory 20th Anniversary Special Issue

This special issue of Eurohealth marks the 20th anniversary of the European Observatory on Health Systems and Policies. Written by the staff of the Observatory, it offers a range of reflections arising from our experience in assessing health systems, working with policy makers and, ultimately, with striving to address the very complex interface between evidence and policy practice.
