Co-Production and the Evidence Promoting the co-pro agenda
Evidence Overview • What can we do to create an evidence base that advances the co-pro agenda? • Why do we need evidence? • What kind of evidence? • How might the evidence be presented? • How might we store and disseminate the evidence?
Why do we need evidence? • “Evidence-based policy”: the Blair years • Open Public Services (2011) • Allen Review (2011): called for policies that are well tested, low in cost, high in results and have a lasting impact on all children • Sir Bob Kerslake and Sir Jeremy Heywood have called for a “kitemark” to access the quality of social policy initiatives
What kind of evidence? • Case Studies • Evaluations • Systematic reviews/meta analyses • Cost-benefit analyses/SROI
Should the focus be on effective programmes or the characteristics that make up effective programmes?
How might we store and disseminate the evidence? • Do we seek to inform practitioners or commissioners and policymakers more broadly? • Reports, a website, blogs, newsletters? • A Wiki-type website
