title: The potential of practical checklists in successful health policy review and implementation.
abstract: The potential use of checklists to encourage the translation of policy into practice is outlined. The policy for the checklists is the WHO/UNODC declaration on women's health in prison; the checklists will be for decision makers and policy advisers; senior prison management staff; and prison health staff. The checklists will be piloted through the WHO network for prison and health and published in 2011.
