KDE Hub Webinar: Research and Evaluation Planning for Phase 2

In Phase 2, MHP-IF projects will contribute to new knowledge (the primary purpose of research) and use evaluation to inform project decisions, such as partnerships, intervention adaptations and scaling. The goal of this webinar is to explore how to achieve these research and evaluation purposes. Both purposes require systematic approaches. We will focus on timely components of these systematic approaches that can inform project planning. Components will include understanding intended use of information, research and evaluation questions that are useful and suitable for the stage of project development, common outcomes for child and youth mental health promotion and ways to move from concepts to measures. Various frameworks to guide research and evaluation planning will also be covered, including the importance of starting with worldview. This webinar is for the MHP-IF community with invitations to projects, the PHAC team and the Hub Resource Collaborative.
