- Book Synopsis
- This textbook presents a much-needed overview of the recent developments in implementation science - a discipline that is young, has gained increasing attention in recent years, and has experienced substantial and rapid growth in knowledgeproduction and debate. It captures the latest developments in research and pushes the reader toward the next phase for implementation science: bridging the science-to-practice divide. Drawing from multidisciplinary, international research by top scholars in the field, this book provides a critical but friendly approach to understanding what implementation science is, what it isn't, and where it's going. Topics include: Factors associated with effective implementation Organizational context and readiness for change Implementation theories, models, and frameworks Enhancing implementation measurement Bringing interventions to scale Closing the science-practice gap in implementation Implementation Science 3.0 is a timely, important resource for researchers, students, and others with an interest in implementation working across the fields of social welfare,public health, education, and psychology.

- Bianca Albers Bianca Albers is a co-founder and the chair of the European Implementation Collaborative (EIC). She is a seasoned organisational leader, investigator and project manager with 15+ years' experience in promoting the use of evidence in policy and practice in child, youth and family services in multiple Western countries. With a background in political science she also has a great interest in the field of evidence-based policy and policy implementation. In her work, Bianca focuses on the development, implementation and evaluation of evidence-informed programs, practices and service models; and on building the capacity within organisations and services to develop, implement and sustain evidence-informed practices and policies. A key element in this work is the identification, selection and translation of current best and relevant evidence.
