Each North American Joanna Briggs Institute Centre member will describe their Centre’s development, structure and approach to facilitation with their clinical partners. We will describe typical Centre activities such as evidence utilization projects and guiding evidence-based practice within healthcare systems. We will present our evolution and experiences from several perspectives including director, deputy director, core staff member and clinical partner. In addition, we will project the long term benefits of the collaboration built on the Centres’ missions. The session will conclude with an audience discussion.
