Monitoring Scale-up of Health Practices and Interventions
Please join MEASURE Evaluation PRH for a one-hour webinar titled "Monitoring Scale-up of Health Practices and Interventions" on July 30 at 10AM EDT. Register online to attend the webinar.
Several resources have been developed to assist program implementers with the process of scaling up. However, once scale-up is underway, few resources exist to help ensure continuous and systematic monitoring of the process to track progress toward sustainability of these innovations. The Guide to Monitoring Scale-up of Health Practices and Interventions was developed as a "how-to" resource to provide program implementers with a low-cost and replicable approach to monitoring the process of scaling up and institutionalizing innovations in health. The goal is to assist country stakeholders with identifying if scale-up is happening as intended, assess if the scale-up is adhering to the model or pilot, and determine if the scale-up efforts can be sustained to achieve the desired impact. While the guide focuses on the scale-up of family planning practices and innovations, it can be adapted to any scale-up experience in a given country context.
The webinar will be a presentation of the guide and discussion of key considerations for monitoring scale-up. It will benefit those managing and implementing the scale-up process, as well as those with an interest in monitoring scale-up.
The presenter, Bridgit Adamou, Program Manager for the MEASURE Evaluation Population and Reproductive Health (PRH) associate award, is the main author of the guide. She has made contributions to various M&E task teams and communities of practice with her family planning and monitoring and evaluation (M&E) expertise, particularly in indicator development. Ms. Adamou earned an MPH in International Health from Boston University and has worked primarily in the South Pacific and sub-Saharan Africa.
