Research articles with different focuses (e.g. the intervention outcome, the implementation output, and qualitative papers) will be submitted to relevant scientific journals.
Specifically, the evaluation assessed the management, implementation, outputs, use of results, capacity-building effects and future monitoring needs of MICS and made recommendations in each of the areas under review.
This study presents a systematic framework and set of indicators for conducting a detailed evaluation of the Jiulong River Watershed Program (JRWP) in China by assessing the implementation process, outputs and outcomes as well as exploring the implementation gap.
Most of these targets, especially those set for the first 3 years of grant implementation, are outputs, and others reflect the results of several different activities, making the currently reported indicators difficult to use for assessing integration of SRH and HIV/AIDS.
In addition to the study of intervention effects and implementation output, it is important to find out how participants and personnel in the urban district experience different aspects of the health-promoting programme.
The evaluation of the program's first year of implementation had three objectives: 1) to measure the reactions of knowledge brokers and researchers to the training activities; 2) to document KB activity implementation and output; and 3) to analyze the implementation processes.
A review and comparison of projects in different countries, (Altermann et al. 1991), must look at at least four dimensions: contextual variables, program characteristics, implementation characteristics, and outputs and outcomes.
The following section defines the activities to strengthen data use in more detail and provides examples of their implementation so that outputs and outcomes can be translated into indicators to evaluate the effect of activities to strengthen data demand and use.
For the purpose of this study, normative analysis is applied to the program design, operational characteristics of implementation, and outputs, through benchmark comparison with SIDA-3 experience in Benin (2006) and the Avahan, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation's initiative to reduce the spread of HIV in India (Avahan and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, 2008).
22 In this approach, monitoring program implementation and outputs is an essential pre-requisite to attribute any changes in coverage and/or mortality to the CCM program.
