This presents new challenges for research and evaluation. `Partnership' is a vague concept, capable of many interpretatios, and its evaluation is therefor problematic, not only for those involved in partnerships but for academics and othes with a wider interest in public policy, its governance and mechanisms for delivering services.

Drawing on examples of health and social services partnerships, the article sets out a number of key criteria against which new patnerhips can be evaluatedItem type | Current location | Collection | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
