Evaluation of programs and initiatives
We examine whether programs are meeting, or are on track to meet, intended results and whether those results are being achieved efficiently. Below are some completed evaluations which will be added to over time.
Governance of the NSW Cancer Plan
Clear governance structures will support effective, coordinated and collaborative implementation of the NSW Cancer Plan. The Cancer Institute NSW is the custodian of the Plan, working together with, partners, stakeholders and other agencies to deliver key activities and initiatives under the priorities and strategic actions in the Plan
A NSW Cancer Plan Advisory Committee has been established consisting of senior representatives of key stakeholder agencies identified as leads and collaborators as well as focus population representatives. The NSW Cancer Plan Advisory Committee:
- provides strategic direction to ensure the goals and priorities are achieved, including development of Implementation Plans
- provides advice relating to implementation, monitoring, reporting and evaluation of the Plan
- promotes and facilitates engagement and communication between all partners, stakeholders and agencies involved in implementing the NSW Cancer Plan.
