During its past meeting, the Cochrane Steering Group has approved the Chilean proposal to host the Cochrane Colloquium 2019 in their country. This acknowledges the progress of Cochrane in Chile in the last years as well as the co-ordination of all the Collaborative Centres of the country in designing and submitting a strong and attractive proposal. Surely this is a great success of the whole Network and its members, who will certainly support them in everything we can.
