How do decisionmakers define what works and how do the different perspectives intersect . Finally as i mentioned, they noted there were two studies of interventions with the rigorous evaluation. Opportunities that we see from the u. S. Perspective for building on communities, first of all acknowledging that these kinds of problems need shared knowledge and tailored efforts. But when were tailoring intervention interventions, how can we be sure that others are learning from those interventions . If they are successful, whats required for implementation.
