Author

Listed:
  • Margaret Hargreaves
  • Diane Paulsell

Abstract

This report grounds the cross-site systems domain evaluation approach in the system literature. It focuses on three aspects: (1) the system-based evaluation approach and theory of change, (2) core infrastructure concepts, and (3) system-based evaluation methods.
