Assessment Description
You are a final year MPH student and you have won a 3-minute thesis competition to present at the annual ‘Systems Thinking for Public Health Symposium’. You have to: 1) Define and describe systems thinking and how a systems approach applies to public health. 2) Using the GenR8 Case Study (Bolton et al. 2022) demonstrate how systems thinking tools were used to plan and evaluate a public health program. You must refer to and apply the Systems Change Framework, 2018 (see reference below) and the Iterative inquiry process to guide your presentation content. When presenting, please include the following: define the situation, including initial boundaries; describe key stakeholders, including their perspectives; outline the systems tools used to plan and evaluate the public health program. Identify any leverage points. You
must demonstrate a systems approach to planning and evaluation in your presentation and not over-rely on traditional planning and evaluation tools. You need both of these references to complete the assessment:
1. Systems Change Framework citation: Davidson S and Morgan M. Systems Change Framework. Sax Institute, September 2018.
2. Bolton, K. A., Fraser, P., Lowe, J., Moodie, M., Bell, C., Strugnell, C., … & Allender, S. (2022). Generating change through collective impact and systems science for childhood obesity prevention: the GenR8 change case study. Plos one, 17(5), e0266654.
You will need to:
• Define and describe systems thinking and how a systems approach applies to public health. • Present the GenR8 case study and apply the Systems Framework (2018) where appropriate.
• Not all components of the Systems Framework need to be applied however purposeful engagement and the iterative inquiry process need to be evident. You MUST include: the situation and identify boundaries, key stakeholders and perspectives, outline systems tools used for planning and measuring, and leverage points in the system.
• You must demonstrate a systems approach to planning and evaluation in your presentation and not over-rely on traditional planning and evaluation tools.
• Cite appropriate in-text references. Please use APA 7th reference style. References should be up-to-date (2015-2023 preferred) and peer-reviewed.
