This is the first in a series of five webinars describing the policy surveillance process in detail. The first steps in the policy surveillance process are scoping and background research. In these stages, researchers identify the topic and parameters of a project and define and refine the scope of that project at the beginning and throughout its duration, this includes identifying sources, structures, and variations in the law. This webinar, recorded on August 27, 2019, was hosted by expert training staff from the Policy Surveillance Program at Temple University’s Center for Public Health Law Research.
