In this article, we begin with an introduction and overview to the Campbell Collaboration's potential contribution to evidence-based practice. We then examine the precedent set by the Campbell Collaboration and afterward discuss a case scenario and the rationale for the Campbell Collaboration. Next, we identify and discuss the Campbell Collaboration's operating principles and current and planned products. The last part of this article focuses on systematic reviews of evidence-based practices.
KEY WORDS: evidence-based practice, Campbell Collaboration, systematic reviews, education, criminal justice, social welfare, and Cochrane Collaboration
