Abstract:
The presence of supportive FP/RH policies is considered an integral component to successful programs. However, much remains to be known about how policies are implemented, especially in a complex political, sociocultural and economic environment. This poster outlines the various methodologies that can be used to study policy implementation, which include descriptive methodologies such as literature reviews and case studies; analytic methodologies such as stakeholder mapping and analysis, cross-sectional surveys and system dynamics; quasi-experimental and experimental studies; studies describing policy implementation within complex adaptive systems, such as, path dependence; and mixed methods as well including focus groups, document analysis and interviews. This poster was presented at the Population Association America conference on May 1, 2014.
