Public Health Evaluation

Public health evaluation is the systematic process of assessing health programs and policies to determine their effectiveness and impact on community well-being. It involves collecting and analyzing data to understand whether initiatives are meeting their goals, improving health outcomes, and efficiently using resources. By identifying strengths and weaknesses, public health evaluation helps decision-makers understand what works, what doesn’t, and how to improve services. Ultimately, it aims to ensure that health interventions positively influence the population's health and address pressing health issues effectively.
