  1. LESSONS LEARNED 25 years of evaluation at the Federal Office of Public Health KerralieOeuvray

  2. Taking stock 25 years on… Objective Given the complexity of the programmes and the diversity of the approaches used, what lessons can be drawn from the evaluation reports conducted during the last 25 years?

  3. Methodology 120 reports 276 lessons drawn from evaluators’ findings, conclusions and recommendations Focus on the implementation process Lessons classified and grouped into clusters Generalisations formulated in terms of 5 key dimensions

  4. Methodology Limits Desk-based analysis restricted to written reports – no validation with evaluators themselves No follow up about how particular lessons were used or further developed

  5. Focus on implementation processes Types of challenges faced by a wide diversity of actors when implementing programmes and projects in complex federalist settings Encompasses key criteria such as efficiency, effectiveness, relevance, sustainability Covers large scope of issues irrespective of frequency Allows looking at lessons from time perspective

  6. Accumulated knowledge: 5 dimensions

  7. Accumulated knowledge: 5 dimensions

  8. 1. Coordinating & collaborating in a federalist setting

  9. 2. Developing & clarifying theories

  10. 3. Relying on a personified FOPH

  11. Lessons surfacing time and time again Links between socio-economic status and health issues Conditions for developing consensus amongst stakeholders Conditions for effective networking practices

  12. Lessons learned from lessons drawn • Accumulated know-how concerns: • knowledge • skills • contacts with stakeholders • Expanding and sharing knowledge base between stakeholders, both internally (employees) and externally (key groups) is vital

  13. Lessons learned from lessons drawn The FOPH relies on “others” for the implementation of public health programmes and projects Effective implementation practices depend on the cultural sensitivity and political acumen of all the key actors

  14. Value added of research Creates a synthesis of key lessons drawn from 25 yrs of evaluations in one document Interprets lessons over time thus identifying lessons which resurface time and time again In line with an emerging trend to document, classify and maintain a register of ‘lessons learned’ Contributes to the history of public health in Switzerland
