From those just beginning their digital journey to more sophisticated project teams, this Toolkit aims to continue to advance the quality of monitoring and evaluation activities within digital health and contribute to more evidence-based planning, implementation and investment.
This resource aims to serve as a reference document for those implementing digital health interventions, who need a practical guide for understanding systematic approaches to monitoring and evaluation in the multidisciplinary field of digital health. Grounded in the real experiences that have emerged from numerous projects across three continents, this tool offers guidance ranging from development of an M&E plan to monitoring implementations, evaluating outcomes, assessing data quality, and eventually, to reporting evaluation findings using a new EQUATOR Network-endorsed checklist. Furthermore, this WHO document provides the tools necessary to ensure that evidence from digital interventions is of sufficient quality to inform the upcoming WHO Guideline on Digital Health Interventions for Health System Strengthening document featuring recommendations to Ministries of Health and their implementing partners.
