AbstractBackground: Despite a steady increase in palliative care (PC)-oriented research, authentic engagement of stakeholders with findings needs to be more used. Objective: This study aimed to explore how ATLANTES Observatory can effectively promote the global development of PC by engaging with stakeholders and addressing their specific needs and priorities. Design: An international e-survey among Observatory collaborators explored key audiences, best ways to reach them, and priority activities. Answers were evaluated according to respondents' roles (Academics, Policymakers, and clinicians) and toward impact on diverse key stakeholders. Correlation between respondents' roles with select products was studied. Results: One hundred fifty-five collaborators participated. The collaborators suggested addressing ATLANTES Global Observatory's activities to policymakers (5,6/7), professional associations (5,2/7), and health care practitioners (4,4/7). Preferred activity to reach all stakeholders is the use of websites and social networks, while particularly for policymakers, academics, and general practitioners, the conduction of atlases and articles stand out. Conclusions: Our study emphasizes prioritizing policymakers and all health care practitioners as key stakeholders in promoting PC and driving global development and integration into health care systems. By leveraging innovative web tools and social networks for dissemination, our aim is to extend the reach of our efforts beyond the PC community.
