AnnotationThis article describes an innovative translation project involving researchers and key stakeholders commissioned by the World Health Organization (WHO) for the Commission on Social Determinants of Health (CSDH). The project aimed to develop "cameo" reports of evidence-based policies and interventions, addressing social determinants of health intended for use by leaders and advocates as well as policy and programme decision makers, to advance global action. The iterative process of developing the framework and content of the cameos, in the context of a limited evidence base, is described; and a number of issues related to the integration of multiple sources of evidence for knowledge translation action are identified.
