CES Implementation practice

CES Implementation practice

Providing implementation support involves working closely with the leaders and staff who deliver services to individuals, families and communities to:

Assess readiness for implementation
Build capacity for implementation
Support them in implementing evidence-informed practices and policies
Sustain and scale for population impact

When supporting implementation of a programme, policy or practice, our approach is to:

Do this with you, not for you
- we work with your expertise about the needs, history, context and/or innovation
- we are outsiders/insiders, bringing both objectivity and helpful challenge
- we don’t do the implementation ourselves
Advise on what you should do, why and how
Help through all, or only specific, implementation stages, depending on your needs and expertise
Actively build capacity of your leaders, staff and teams involved in implementation, so that implementation skills stay in the organisation after CES support

CES can also provide an active implementation support role and function.
