Our presentation will introduce the Manitoba Centre for Health Policy (MCHP) and explore how the Population Research Data Repository can support community-driven research and inform policy and practice. We will highlight MCHP's work to advance data equity and strengthen partnerships with community and non-profit organizations, including opportunities to use administrative data to answer questions that matter to communities. Drawing on examples from the SPECTRUM partnership and projects with BGC Winnipeg, we will illustrate how collaborative research can generate meaningful evidence, support advocacy, and inform programs and services.
