Implementation & Scale Up Academic Debate
In this academic debate, the Prevention Research Collaboration and The Australian Prevention Partnership Centre hosted a panel of experts to discuss the differences and similarities between ‘implementation’ and scaling-up health interventions.
What do we really know about implementation science? How does intervention scale up differ from implementation? And, where does scale up even start?
Expert panelists included Emeritus Professor Adrian Bauman, Professor Heather McKay, Professor Luke Wolfenden, Dr Nicole Rankin, Dr Andrew Milat, and Dr Rachel Sutherland.
The debate aimed to:
- Engage researchers and practitioners on the research nuances and challenges of implementing preventive health interventions
- Advance concepts and definitions in implementation science and scale up
- Support research collaboration across program implementation settings.
This recording will be of interest to researchers, policymakers and practitioners interested in implementation and scale up of research and practice across population health settings.
