Little research is done on how socio-political factors intertwine with method implementation. This paper is a follow up of a reported PD method implementation failure four years ago. For branch related reasons, the implementation fell short. This article tells the story of what happened then.

Traditional efforts to translate evidence-based prevention strategies to communities, at scale, have not often produced socially significant outcomes or the local capacity needed to sustain them. A key gap in many efforts is the transformation of community prevention systems to support and sustain local infrastructure for the active implementation, scaling, and continuous improvement of effecti...

Reference implementation of the e-Learning environment ...

Clinical Practice guidelines (CPGs) have emerged as a potentially effective intervention in delivering a high quality, consistent, safe and evidence-based health care. CPGs can either be developed by de novo synthesis or by adaptation of existing guidelines formed in another organization. Guideline recommendations are formulated based on strength of the evidence, validity, clinical relevance an...
