About Course
Welcome to the course on Implementation Research in Mental Health. This course explores the fundamentals of implementation science; introduces strategies for using innovative scientific methods and tools of diverse disciplines to understand and overcome impediments to implementation and facilitate scale-up; and uses applied case studies to identify and contextualize implementation successes and failures.
Course duration: 3 hrs lecture and 4 weeks of self paced study
Course duration: 3 hrs lecture and 4 weeks of self paced study
Course Content(s)
- Fundamental of Implementation Research
- Types of Implementation Research
- Impact Evaluation and IS study designs for mental health
- Evidence translation
- Dissemination of mental health Research
- Scaling up mental health interventions
- Economics of mental health
Course Objective(s)
By the end of the course, participants are expect to achieve the following objectives:
- Identify appropriate interventions to translate into practice.
- Design effective and sustainable implementation strategies.
- Design comprehensive evaluations of intervention implementation strategies to overcome impediments to implementation and facilitate timely scale-up of proven interventions with high levels of fidelity and effectiveness.
- Identify the major factors that limit the translation of evidence into effective health programs
- Describe the role of complementary implementation science research methods in the development of evidence-based health programs and policies.
- Describe frameworks for designing successful implementation strategies and apply the framework to a real-world health problem.
