Social Innovation in Health: Monitoring and Evaluation Framework

This framework provides a comprehensive approach to monitoring and evaluating social innovations that improve health outcomes in underserved communities. It outlines principles, indicators, and measurement approaches that help organizations assess not only programme performance but also the sustainability, scalability, community ownership, and broader systems change resulting from social innovations. The resource emphasizes participatory evaluation, encouraging communities and stakeholders to play an active role in defining success and interpreting findings. It also explores how evidence generated through monitoring and evaluation can strengthen implementation research, inform policy decisions, and support the expansion of effective innovations. The framework offers practical guidance for integrating learning and accountability throughout the innovation process while ensuring that interventions remain responsive to local needs
