The Evidence-informed Policy (EIP) emerged to identify the best strategies available, bringing us closer to the decision-making process in public policy. However, for this to occur, it depends on access to knowledge, which should be used in a transparent and systematic way. Thus, the goal is to present how to use the EIP, showing the steps necessary to use it in the decision-making process in public health. Literature review was carried out in two databases, being selected nine studies, after full text reading. The article was divided into three large blocks, each containing the main questions to be answered during the elaboration of a synthesis of evidence.
