Local health practitioners are key decision makers in the health system.
They have an intimate knowledge of community health gaps, needs and priorities, as well as what will work and what won’t in health interventions.
Especially in the north, where there are many small and isolated communities, local health practitioners may be the only point of contact with the health care system. This makes them crucial research and knowledge translation partners for most community health research projects.
