Um die Qualität von Evaluierungen zu verbessern, wurde 1975 in den USA ein Komitee in Leben gerufen, das professionelle Standards für Programmevaluierungen (program evaluation standards, PES) erarbeiten sollte. Es wurden 30 Aspekte für "gute Evaluierungen" identifiziert und in einer Checkliste zusammengefasst. In mehreren Workshops wurden sie modifiziert und afrikanischen Verhältnissen angepasst. Das Ergebnis wurde der Gründungskonferenz der African Evaluation Association (AfrEA) im September 1999 vogelegt. Diese entschied, eine Liste afrikanischer Evaluierungsrichtlinien zu erarbeiten, die von den nationalen Vereinigungen geprüft und getestet werden soll. (DÜI-Sbd)

This book provides a detailed insight into the amalgamation of the healthcare and hospitality sector, which brought forward the concept of healthcare tourism or medical tourism. There have not been comprehensive resources in this particular area. The available quality resources focus on the Western world. Countries like India are an upcoming and one of the most favored destinations for medical tourism, and this trend is going to increase exponentially in the coming years. This book is developed in a very simple and lucid manner to enable even a layman to grasp the key components of the healthcare and hospitality sector at different levels and gradually link it to the present scenario where factors like accreditation, health insurance, corporatization, and public policy make an impact. Scholars in these sectors attempt to provide the recent trends and prospects supported with updated information. Therefore, it can solve the problem of a single source of detailed information relevant to different yet interconnected industries with a focus on developing countries

This paper presents a case study of the Honey Bee Network's decentralized model for collecting, verifying and disseminating grassroots innovations and provides a roadmap for its replication in Africa. The Honey Bee Network brings together governmental and non‐governmental institutions, members of academia, scholars and a large number of volunteers. Through the Network's activities, locally‐ designed solutions and traditional knowledge with the potential to be refined and scaled up are scouted and members of the Network work with the innovators to help their ideas reach their commercial or non‐commercial potential. The Network has been involved in the sharing of grassroots technology developed in India with Kenya, notably a food processing machine, seed sowing device, and a small tractor. Through these pilot programs, actors at the grassroots had a chance to collaborate and co‐design solutions adapted to the Kenyan context. This experience revealed a willingness in Kenya to further invest in grassroots innovation initiatives, and Network members identified many conditions that would make Kenya the right choice for an African network hub, such as a rich traditional knowledge system and institutional willingness and recognition of the dynamism of the informal sector. Lessons from the Network's experience in Kenya and its technology transfer program are collected and turned into recommendations for the development of a sister Network in Africa.
