The focus of the WNF Research Working Group is to support the codifying and synthesizing of existing knowledge, the generation of new knowledge and the dissemination of this knowledge to the wider clinical and research committee. The naturopathic profession is a leader in research supporting Traditional and Complementary Medicine practice and has been active in developing research capacity in other health and medical areas beyond naturopathy / naturopathic medicine.
Building global research capacity within and in support of the naturopathic profession is being accomplished by:
