Asian Society for Implementation Science
Turning Evidence into Action Across Asia
The Asian Society for Implementation Science (ASIS) is a regional professional society dedicated to advancing implementation science and strengthening the use of evidence in policies, health systems, organizations, and communities across Asia.
ASIS brings together researchers, practitioners, policymakers, educators, funders, students, community representatives, and other partners committed to closing the gap between what is known and what is routinely delivered in real-world settings.
Through regional collaboration, capacity strengthening, knowledge exchange, mentorship, and advocacy, ASIS works to develop the next generation of implementation science leaders and increase the impact of research throughout Asia.
The Field
Why Implementation Science Matters
Effective interventions, technologies, and policies often fail to achieve their intended impact because of challenges in adoption, delivery, adaptation, scale-up, and sustainability.
Asia’s diversity creates both unique implementation challenges and important opportunities for innovation. ASIS provides a regional platform for generating contextually relevant knowledge and translating it into meaningful action.
