Y1 - 2022 N1 - T2 - Maxcy-Rosenau-Last Public Health & Preventive Medicine, 16e AB - It is quite important to deliver effective interventions to individuals and populations. Particularly at the global level, it is necessary to follow those interventions and measure how they work and what effects they have to improve health and promote development. In this chapter, we will discuss why and how we evaluate progress in global health, focusing on the importance of using the process to build local capacity and overcome public health challenges. We will also consider some of the ways in which progress in global health and development is being monitored on the global scale, and how this interacts with metrics of progress in health and development processes at national and local levels.
