Integrating Human-Centered Design in a Multidisciplinary Effort to Address Provider Bias: a Summary of the Beyond Bias Experience (Part 3)
Add To FavouritesIntegrating Human-Centered Design in a Multidisciplinary Effort to Address Provider Bias: a Summary of the Beyond Bias Experience (Part 3)
This executive summary unpacks the use of HCD in ‘Beyond Bias’, an adolescent focused project that addresses provider bias. Along with providing an overview of the HCD methodology used, and the solutions generated by the project, this publication also reflects on the use of HCD in an ASRH project. It highlights the value additions of using human centered design, the key challenges that were faced, and important recommendations informed by project learnings. This is a good resource for designers and ASRH implementers to understand the application, benefits and limitations of the HCD process in the context of ASRH.

A360 Process Evaluation Methodology: Updated July 2019
Add To FavouritesA360 Process Evaluation Methodology: Updated July 2019
The Process Methodology document presents a descriptive and analytical account of how the implementation of A360 has played out, with the aim of improving understanding of how and why A360 is making a difference, in order to generate lessons for future policy and practice. Clear questions guiding this Process Evaluation were established at end of the pilot phase with deliberate emphasis to better understand and document A360’s implementation approach. Questions articulated in this paper focus on process, context and solutions, with a detailed explanation on select methods used in the evaluation.

Midterm Review of the Adolescents 360 Program
Add To FavouritesMidterm Review of the Adolescents 360 Program
This midterm review synthesizes evaluation findings from the design phase of A360 and the first few quarters of implementation (Aug 2016 – Sep 2018), drawing together insights from an ongoing process evaluation, a cost-effectiveness analysis, and the baseline findings from an outcome evaluation. Although the review does not determine the effectiveness of the solutions and therefore A360 as a whole, it finds that the value of the A360 approach is starting to emerge, while also highlighting a number of challenges and trade-offs that the consortium continues to navigate. The MTE’s takeaways are useful for evaluators of HCD and adaptive programs (see page 10), and for donors and future ASRH implementers (see page 49).
