PANACeA Formative Network evaluation report

Abstract

This formative evaluation of PANACeA Network (PAN Asian Collaborative for Evidence-based eHealth Adoption and Application) employs the Utilization Focused Evaluation (UFE) approach to develop evaluation capacity in Information Communication Technology for development (ICT4D). UFE directs users of the evaluation to focus on utilization of the findings right from the start of the process. Some findings from the UFE process indicate that PANACeA enhanced partners’ capacity in research design, improved eHealth infrastructure, and increased their readiness for conducting independent eHealth projects, while building members’ capacity in knowledge management and dissemination.
