Sharing public health information
How do we ensure that • Policy makers / clinicians / practitioners
/ others get information when they need it?
• The experience of policy makers and practitioners is considered?
• People also get the other contextual information they need?

AIeHL – how it works
The AIeHL is a network of interoperable websites
All member websites contribute relevant resources
No repository, only a central metadata cache
XML feeds to the metadata cache
AIeHL website searches that central metadata cache
To retrieve a resource, visitor is directed to the member website that contributed it
