The Cross-Sector Health Equity Evaluation Framework (CHEEF): A Think Tank for Transformative Evaluation Practice

The Cross-Sector Health Equity Evaluation Framework (CHEEF) addresses a critical gap in contemporary evaluation practice: the fragmentation of health equity evaluation across sector boundaries. This think tank session introduces participants to CHEEF's theoretical foundations and core components while inviting collaborative exploration of its practical applications and future development. CHEEF integrates evaluation methodologies across healthcare, public health, community development, and social service sectors through structured mechanisms for cross-sector integration, participatory governance, and power redistribution. The session will engage participants in facilitated discussions on implementing cross-sector evaluation approaches, navigating power dynamics, and addressing technical and organizational challenges. This interactive format will generate insights for both framework refinement and participants' own practice, fostering a community of practice around cross-sector health equity evaluation.
