Abstract:
Evaluation of health promotion intervention is a systematic examination and assessment of process and outcomes of a health promotion intervention in order to produce information for further improvement. Due to complexity of health promotion interventions, several methodological and practical issues have to be clarified from the beginning of the processes. In this context, based on the literature review, and Springett and all model, an eight step evaluation framework and its principles is described. Some important methodological issues and challenges specific for each step are further detailed. Also critical points and difficulties are briefly presented. The whole approach contributes to enhance understanding of methodology and importance of evaluation as part of health promotion interventions cycle.
