The Agree Trust

Welcome to the AGREE (Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation) Research Trust website. This is the official site of the AGREE Research Trust (ART) that was established in July 2004. ART manages the interests of the AGREE Instrument and holds its copyright. This site is updated regularly to incorporate projects and other activities related to the use of the AGREE Instrument.

AGREE stands for "Appraisal of Guidelines Research and Evaluation". It originates from an international collaboration of researchers and policy makers who work together to improve the quality and effectiveness of clinical practice guidelines by establishing a shared framework for their development, reporting and assessment.

The AGREE Research Trust Website (www.agreetrust.org) is independent from the (www.agreecollaboration.org) website. This was established for the purpose of the AGREE project which ended in April 2004.

ART is a partner of the Guidelines International Network (G-I-N)
