The Second Asian Conference on Implementation Science is a regional scientific and professional gathering dedicated to advancing the study and practice of implementation across Asia.
The conference recognizes that evidence alone does not improve health or social outcomes. Interventions must reach the people and settings that need them, be delivered with appropriate quality, respond to local context, and become embedded within routine systems.
ACIS 2027 will bring together diverse perspectives to explore how implementation science can help close the gap between knowledge and action, combining scientific rigour with practical experience.
Conference Theme
Connecting Evidence, Policy, and Practice: Advancing Implementation Science in Asia
The ACIS 2027 theme emphasizes the need to move beyond identifying what works. It calls for greater attention to how interventions work, for whom they work, under what conditions, at what cost, and how their benefits can be sustained and distributed equitably. The theme invites participants to consider:
- How local knowledge can shape implementation
- How context influences implementation processes and outcomes
- How research can better respond to the needs of policymakers and practitioners
- How implementation can advance rather than widen equity
- How successful programmes can be institutionalized, scaled, and sustained
- How regional collaboration can accelerate learning across Asia
