Project Title:
Supporting Better Evidence Generation & Use Within Social Innovation in Health in Low- and Middle- Income Countries: a Qualitative Study

Project Dates:
April 2015-March 2015

Deposit Date:
June 4, 2016

Kind of Data:
Textual

Type of Data:
Qualitative

Resource language:
English

Background and Objective:
While several papers have highlighted a lack of evidence to scale social innovations in health, fewer have explored decision-maker understandings of the relative merit of different types of evidence, how such data are interpreted and applied, and what practical support is required to improve evidence generation. The objectives of this paper are to understand (1) beliefs and attitudes towards the value of and types of evidence in scaling social innovations for health, (2) approaches to evidence generation and evaluation used in systems and policy change, and (3) how better evidence-generation can be undertaken and supported within social innovation in health.

Methods: Thirty-two one-on-one interviews were conducted between July and November 2015 with purposively selected practitioners, policymakers, and funders from low- and middle- income countries (LMICs). For more information see the Methods .txt document
