Question

Describe the impact evaluation you will conduct for your health education strategy.

Answer 1

Ans) Impact evaluation: Impact evaluation assesses a program's effect on participants. Appropriate measures include changes in awareness, knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, and/or skills.

- A factor that is assessed in outcome evaluation in one intervention may be assessed as part of impact evaluation in another.

For example, a public health nutritionist working in community health may be trying to affect change in knowledge and availability of fruit and vegetables (impact) with the goal of
increasing average intake by one serving (outcome). While at the national or pan-European level increasing fruit and vegetable intake (impact) may be an objective towards achieving the goal of reducing the prevalence of obesity.
