Around the world, countries are working very hard to come up with proper and effective responses to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. Governments must accelerate their decision-making process and act decisively to mitigate the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and produce policies for socio-economic recovery of communities. Since the COVID-19 response requires a multidisciplinary approach, interdisciplinary research can be a bridge to ensure the participation of diverse interest groups and communities to produce the evidence base needed for more targeted policymaking. This discussion will explore the effectiveness, opportunities and challenges of implementing rapid research as a method of formulating informed evidence-based policy in tackling the impact of COVID-19 pandemic.
