- Description
- Scaling up effective interventions in public health is complex and comprehensive, and published accounts of the scale-up process are scarce. Key aspects of the scale-up experience need to be more comprehensively captured. This study describes the development of a guide for reflecting on and documenting the scale-up of public health interventions, to increase the depth of practice-based information of scaling up. Reviews of relevant scale-up frameworks along with expert input informed the development of the guide. We evaluated its acceptability with potential end-users and applied it to two real-world case studies. The Scale-up Reflection Guide (SRG) provides a structure and process for reflecting on and documenting key aspects of the scale-up process of public health interventions. The SRG is comprised of eight sections: context of completion; intervention delivery, history/background; intervention components; costs/funding strategies and partnership arrangements; the scale-up setting and delivery; scale-up process; and evidence of effectiveness and long-term outcomes. Utilization of the SRG may improve the consistency and reporting for the scale-up of public health interventions and facilitate knowledge sharing. The SRG can be used by a variety of stakeholders including researchers, policymakers or practitioners to more comprehensively reflect on and document scale-up experiences and inform future practice.
