Aims:
The evaluation of the Joint Action on Cancer and Other Non-Communicable Diseases (JA PreventNCD) is considered a relevant contribution to guiding future public health activities in European countries. It will assess the project outputs and evaluate their contribution to achieving the outcomes of the joint action (JA), as well as their impact at both the European Union (EU) and member state (MS) levels.
Methods:
The evaluation, informed by a logic model, assesses project-level outputs as well as outcomes and impacts at the MS and EU levels using mixed-methods approaches. This involves data collection and analysis to address the evaluation questions. Accompanying evaluation approaches will include monitoring selected implementation case studies and examining the influence of contextual factors across diverse settings.
Conclusions:
The evaluation will provide essential insights to guide the adaptation and scaling-up of interventions to prevent non-communicable diseases (NCD) across diverse settings and countries. These insights can assist decision-makers in designing and implementing future public health initiatives.
