Public Health England (PHE) has announced it is piloting an online space on Knowledge Hub to share information about local knowledge and intelligence products and services.
The space will be run by the Local Knowledge and Intelligence Service (LKIS).
According to PHE, Knowledge Hub will provide the organisation in each geographical PHE Centre location, ‘a way to make it easier for local partners to keep up to date with the relevant health intelligence relating to their area, and to take part in discussions’.
The initial phase, focussing on knowledge and intelligence, is based on user needs identified as part of the transition work on legacy Public Health Observatory (PHO) websites.
The content will include: information about our local knowledge and intelligence service; discussion forums for people working in local public health; and links to the content from old PHO websites on national archives.
