This book was released on 2013-04-04 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global community has collaboratively taken responsibility for advancing health for all and codified this commitment in the Millennium Development Goals. The global effort has enabled standardization of approaches, including the agreement that evidence-based decision making is a norm for health policy, practice, and programs. The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) is likewise committed to evidence-based, innovative, efficacious, effective and sustainable global health programs. Evidence based decision making is critical to informing and guiding programming in global health intervention, global health policies, and programs. However, many current evidence evaluation frameworks have evolved from the clinical model where physician decision making is determined by rigorous systematic review of data derived from randomized clinical trials (RCTs) which emphasize efficacy for the individual patient. Evidence requirements for global health programs are complex, and include three streams: efficacy at the individual level, effectiveness at the population level, and sustainability at the host country level. A standardized approach to evaluation of evidence will strengthen and support global health strategies, programs, and practice optimizing limited resources for maximal health impact. The Global Health Evidence Evaluation Framework project is aimed at developing an evidence framework for the purposes of informing efficacious, effective, sustainable global health programs at the community and scale level. This project represents collaboration between the project team and an interdisciplinary group of experts, called the Technical Expert Panel, or TEP. Each key step of the project requires both preparatory work on the part of the project team and then consideration and discussion by the TEP, with synthesis of the TEP discussion and decisions then made by the project team. Preliminary Key Questions were: What is the role of context in the effectiveness and scalability of global health interventions/programs at the community and population level? What descriptions of elements of study design and execution are necessary to reach conclusions about effectiveness? What descriptions of elements of implementation are necessary to reach conclusions about scalability and sustainability? The six steps of the project are to: 1. Assemble an interdisciplinary panel of experts. 2. Select a set of “exemplar interventions or programs.” Note “exemplar” means “characteristic of its kind.” These exemplars are needed because they provide the “real world” examples to use when developing and testing frameworks and criteria. 3. Perform a focused literature review on the exemplar interventions, to elucidate what is currently being reported regarding evaluations of the exemplar interventions and to identify gaps in the evidence. 4. Perform an assessment of strengths and limitations of existing frameworks for assessing global health interventions. 5. Identify and/or develop of criteria to meet identified needs or gaps in existing frameworks. 6. Pilot test the draft criteria.

This book was released on 2012-12-13 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past century the major causes of morbidity and mortality in the United States have shifted from those related to communicable diseases to those due to chronic diseases. Just as the major causes of morbidity and mortality have changed, so too has the understanding of health and what makes people healthy or ill. Research has documented the importance of the social determinants of health (for example, socioeconomic status and education) that affect health directly as well as through their impact on other health determinants such as risk factors. Targeting interventions toward the conditions associated with today's challenges to living a healthy life requires an increased emphasis on the factors that affect the current cause of morbidity and mortality, factors such as the social determinants of health. Many community-based prevention interventions target such conditions. Community-based prevention interventions offer three distinct strengths. First, because the intervention is implemented population-wide it is inclusive and not dependent on access to a health care system. Second, by directing strategies at an entire population an intervention can reach individuals at all levels of risk. And finally, some lifestyle and behavioral risk factors are shaped by conditions not under an individual's control. For example, encouraging an individual to eat healthy food when none is accessible undermines the potential for successful behavioral change. Community-based prevention interventions can be designed to affect environmental and social conditions that are out of the reach of clinical services. Four foundations - the California Endowment, the de Beaumont Foundation, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation - asked the Institute of Medicine to convene an expert committee to develop a framework for assessing the value of community-based, non-clinical prevention policies and wellness strategies, especially those targeting the prevention of long-term, chronic diseases. The charge to the committee was to define community-based, non-clinical prevention policy and wellness strategies; define the value for community-based, non-clinical prevention policies and wellness strategies; and analyze current frameworks used to assess the value of community-based, non-clinical prevention policies and wellness strategies, including the methodologies and measures used and the short- and long-term impacts of such prevention policy and wellness strategies on health care spending and public health. An Integrated Framework for Assessing the Value of Community-Based Prevention summarizes the committee's findings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do communities protect and improve the health of their populations? Health care is part of the answer but so are environmental protections, social and educational services, adequate nutrition, and a host of other activities. With concern over funding constraints, making sure such activities are efficient and effective is becoming a high priority. Improving Health in the Community explains how population-based performance monitoring programs can help communities point their efforts in the right direction. Within a broad definition of community health, the committee addresses factors surrounding the implementation of performance monitoring and explores the "why" and "how to" of establishing mechanisms to monitor the performance of those who can influence community health. The book offers a policy framework, applies a multidimensional model of the determinants of health, and provides sets of prototype performance indicators for specific health issues. Improving Health in the Community presents an attainable vision of a process that can achieve community-wide health benefits.

This book was released on 2004-06-15 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An effective state is essential to achieving socio-economic and sustainable development. With the advent of globalization, there are growing pressures on governments and organizations around the world to be more responsive to the demands of internal and external stakeholders for good governance, accountability and transparency, greater development effectiveness, and delivery of tangible results. Governments, parliaments, citizens, the private sector, NGOs, civil society, international organizations and donors are among the stakeholders interested in better performance. As demands for greater accountability and real results have increased, there is an attendant need for enhanced results-based monitoring and evaluation of policies, programs, and projects. This Handbook provides a comprehensive ten-step model that will help guide development practitioners through the process of designing and building a results-based monitoring and evaluation system. These steps begin with a OC Readiness AssessmentOCO and take the practitioner through the design, management, and importantly, the sustainability of such systems. The Handbook describes each step in detail, the tasks needed to complete each one, and the tools available to help along the way."

This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The World Health Organization defines the social determinants of health as "the conditions in which people are born, grow, work, live, and age, and the wider set of forces and systems shaping the conditions of daily life." These forces and systems include economic policies, development agendas, cultural and social norms, social policies, and political systems. In an era of pronounced human migration, changing demographics, and growing financial gaps between rich and poor, a fundamental understanding of how the conditions and circumstances in which individuals and populations exist affect mental and physical health is imperative. Educating health professionals about the social determinants of health generates awareness among those professionals about the potential root causes of ill health and the importance of addressing them in and with communities, contributing to more effective strategies for improving health and health care for underserved individuals, communities, and populations. Recently, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a workshop to develop a high-level framework for such health professional education. A Framework for Educating Health Professionals to Address the Social Determinants of Health also puts forth a conceptual model for the framework's use with the goal of helping stakeholder groups envision ways in which organizations, education, and communities can come together to address health inequalities.
