Common Themes

A number of common themes were identified from a review of various national and international information sources.

The content of the information on the various national and international information sources examined as part of this review highlighted certain common themes, which will be presented in table 1 overleaf, using 4 classifications of policy & strategy, practice, quality, and research.
