Economic Evaluation in Implementation Science in Action: How to Get Started (Part 2)
Location: Online
The final seminar in a three-part series, this seminar is designed to guide participants through the practical steps of developing a program logic informed by economic evidence.
The session demonstrates how to map pathways between implementation activities, resource use, and outcomes, and provides hands-on examples of applying these methods to real projects. Participants will leave with practical skills to develop a program logic for their own research or service context, strengthening the integration of economics into implementation science.
This is the third seminar in the SHP Implementation Science Academy’s health economics series. You can access the previous sessions below:
- Seminar 1: Dr Marina Pinheiro introduced core economic evaluation concepts and methods.
- Seminar 2: Dr Zoe Szewczyk shared 11 key questions to help you collaborate effectively with health economists and how to get started if you don’t have a health economist on your project team.
You don’t need to have attended Seminars 1 or 2 to take part.
