Santé publique France is France’s national public health agency. A public institution under the authority of the Minister of Health, formed through the merger of several public institutions and established by Ordinance 2016-246 of April 15, 2016, the agency works to promote public health. As a scientific, expert, and public health safety agency, its missions include:

1. Epidemiological observation and surveillance of the health status of the population;
2. Monitoring health risks threatening the population;
3. Promoting health and reducing health risks;
4. Developing prevention and health education;
5. Preparation for and response to health threats, alerts, and crises;
6. Issuing public health alerts.

The agency is organized into 12 departments—some scientific, some cross-functional, and some providing operational support.

The agency’s strategic priorities and work program, established by its Board of Directors, are organized into three areas: Strengthening the capacity for anticipation and rapid response to health threats; Measuring and assessing the extent of diseases and risk factors to guide their prevention and control; Strengthening the health impact of all public policies, as well as health prevention and promotion.

Axis 1: Evaluation

• Data collection and organization: compilation of data from deliverables provided by the pilot projects in a format consistent with the selected evaluation model (Program Logic Assessment). The data collected comes from secondary sources (notably implementation reports).
• Qualitative interviews: Participation in conducting individual meetings with the leaders of each pilot project to ensure the relevance and proper understanding of the collected data and to gather qualitative information from informal accounts (indicators of success and obstacles encountered).
•  Data analysis: Aggregation of evaluations from the various pilot projects and application of the causal mechanisms model to identify obstacles, barriers, and successes.
• Operational integration: Integration into the Task 6.5 team and overall adoption of the evaluation methodology.
   

Axis 2: Deliverables and Roadmap

• Drafting of the final deliverable in the form of a roadmap (roadmap for implementing the interventions).
• Presentation of results.
   

Axis 3: Monitoring and Governance

•  Regular participation in WP6 working meetings and discussions.
