Evaluation of Regional Cancer Networks Underway

Cancer Control New Zealand has started evaluating the regional cancer networks to check to see whether they are working as intended in the Cancer Control Strategy.

The evaluation is looking look at:

• The development and implementation of the regional cancer networks and how these have changed over time
• Whether the forms and functions of the networks reflect the expectations for the networks over time
• The factors that have influenced, both positively and negatively, the development and operation of the networks over time
• Engagement of key cancer sector stakeholders
• Success, failures and opportunities for improvement and further development
• The impact the networks appear to be having.

The evaluators will be reviewing and analysing the network’s documentation and interviewing key stakeholders from each network and nationally.
