From: An evaluation of the evidence brief for policy development process in WHO EVIPNet Europe countries
Country | How the process was initiated/problem prioritized | Team composition and roles |
---|---|---|
Estonia | Piggy-backing on existing government policy priority and topic selected by the Ministry of Social Affairs resulted in increased engagement, resources and attention to the EBP | Roles and responsibilities were defined early in the process and supported efficient collaboration |
Hungary | Including only technical staff from the Ministry of Health (vs policy decision-makers) limited political support | Roles and responsibilities not clearly defined from the beginning, hampering early progress |
Slovenia | Topic not chosen at high-level of Ministry of Health and this compromised their ownership and endorsement of the process | Roles and responsibilities were defined early in the process and supported efficient collaboration. |
