Many evaluations of complex interventions fail to provide actionable recommendations, as the available evaluation approaches oversimplify the reality that interventions consist of several interconnected parts and processes. This results in evaluation findings that decision-makers cannot comprehend and therefore disregard. To overcome this challenge, this book proposes a practical 3-step framework called System Evaluation Theory (SET), which is designed to assess interventions as systems with interdependent and emergent properties. The author provides clear guidance on how to execute each SET step and demonstrates the theory’s application through real-world examples and evaluations. By using SET, evaluators of all skill levels can develop more meaningful recommendations that better capture the complex reality of interventions.
