2Draw up a “longlist” of interventions based on reviews of reviews
3Reduce to a shortlist of interventions through consensus process considering:
• quality of evidence
• potential transferability

• potential to impact inequalities in health
4Convene appraisal of practice field meetings until “sufficient saturation” is reached*
5Verification of meeting summaries by participants
6Interview key informants to supplement findings
7Production of Effective Action Briefing
