AmsCIS newsletter #6         !!! Best viewed in your browser 
This is the last AmsCIS Newsletter of 2022.
We look back at a year in which implementation of necessary changes has become even more important, as we strive for solutions of complex challenges like the current recession, an ageing population and climate change.

With AmsCIS, we are proud of this year's beautiful and impactful implementation projects and collaborations. In 2023 we hope we can support you even more with all things implementation science and practice, to help you generate more positive impact in the world.

Thank you for your interest and involvement and all the best for 2023!

The AmsCIS team:
Femke van Nassau, Esther Bisschops, Mireille Dekker, Maarten Kok, Annicka van der Plas, Andrea Thoonsen, Christiaan Vis and Nina Zipfel

NIC IMPLEMENTATION WEEK
From January 23 to 27, 2023, the Netherlands Implementation Collective (NIC) organizes the annual Implementation Week. Numerous implementation-oriented organizations, scientists and specialists organize interesting implementation meetings, symposia and educative sessions - both online and face-to-face.

View the program on NIC's website!
YES WE CAN! - SESSION

Date: Thursday January 26, 2023 | 09:30-11:00
Online via Zoom (NL)


In the Implementation Week, AmsCIS organizes an online Yes We Can! - session! Implementation researchers and peers get a platform to share their implementation challenges in the field of research and/or practice. It offers the opportunity to support and inspire each other through creative, out-of-the-box ideas and solutions. During the session, two pre-selected challenges are analyzed with the implementation experts and peers present.

Do you have a challenge in the field of implementation research and/or practice that you would like to present to a broad implementation audience? You can! Please contact us at aph.amscis@amsterdamumc.nl.

If you want to participate in this session, you can register via this registration form.

SYMPOSIUM IMPLEMENTATION SPORT & EXERCISE

Date: Friday January 27, 2023 | 09:30–17:30
Philips Stadium Eindhoven

In the Implementation Week, the Sport & Exercise Implementation Network organizes a symposium in the PSV stadium. During the symposium, Prof. dr. Stef Kremers and dr. Erwin Ista will shed their light on how to navigate in the implementation landscape and what strategies to use. Furthermore, several workshops are organized around evaluation, stakeholders, sustainability and adaptations. Interested? Sign up here.

EUROPEAN IMPLEMENTATION EVENT

Date: June 8 & 9, 2023
Basel, Switzerland


An opportunity to learn about latest, cutting-edge implementation science and practice; to participate in inspiring and surprising discussions with international colleagues; to expand your professional network; and to be inspired by the diversity of this exciting discipline in 2023 will be at the European Implementation Event (EIE2023). 

EIE2023 brings together individuals and organisations engaged in synthesizing, translating, adopting and implementing evidence in human service practice and policy. Visit their website for more information.

RECAP PAST AMSCIS EVENTS
IMPLEMENTATION JOURNAL CLUB - December 2nd was the kick off of our Implementation Journal Club. After an introduction to the article of Schroeder et al. (2022) in which the determinants of CFIR are combined with social processes described by NPT, 12 participants discussed the article in break-out rooms. Participants wondered if you can just combine two implementation frameworks or theories like that? How does it help to better understand implementation practice? Both in evaluation studies and in shaping implementation practice, the article was seen as helpful.
STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT EDUCATION SESSION - December 12th the second education session - this time about ‘engagement of stakeholders’ - was held. Effective and early engagement of stakeholders in your research is important to contribute to better implementation of your research results and/or interventions. Stakeholder engagement is essential to achieve impact and bridging the gap between research production and research use. Theory and practice were discussed in a two-hour online session. With help from the audience it became an interactive session, difficulties were discussed and practical solutions shared.
Keep your eye on upcoming newsletters for new journal club & education sessions in 2023!
INTERESTING PUBLICATIONS ON IMPLEMENTATION
Recent interesting publications, carefully selected by the AmsCIS team.
1. Hall et al. (2022). Evaluation of measures of sustainability and sustainability determinants for use in community, public health, and clinical settings: a systematic review.

IMPLEMENTATION PROJECTS & GRANTS
We have added a new section to our newsletter to inform you about the various implementation projects within APH. We hope it offers you inspiration, or maybe even a new opportunity for collaboration!
The first 4 projects are highlighted below. Would you like to see your implementation project highlighted in our newsletter?

Horizon 2020 Grant
Christiaan Vis, Femke van Nassau and Hidde van der Ploeg have been awarded with a H2020 grant focused on effective implementation of primary cancer prevention (PCP) in the PIECES project.

Promoting implementation with Communities of Practice
Esther Bisschops (VU) is involved in the Freedom and Safety research project. The project focuses on implementing 3 methods to reduce involuntary care in intellectual disability care. One of the aims of this project was to track the exchange of knowledge and experiences regarding the implementation in Communities of Practice (an emerging method for promoting implementation). Participants are care professionals, experts by experience and researchers. 

Scaling up
Femke van Nassau (Amsterdam UMC) leads a ZonMw project aimed at gaining insight into the most important determinants, routes and strategies for scaling up, based on experiences in the Netherlands with (successful) scaling up interventions. Intervention owners and other relevant stakeholders are asked about their experiences. 
Matching implementation strategies to determinants
There is a need for knowledge of (context-sensitive and dynamic) methods for linking determinants to implementation strategies. An overview of available methods and their application possibilities in scientific literature, policy and implementation practice is lacking. This ZonMw project, led by Christiaan Vis (VU), consists of a literature review, supplemented and contrasted with practical experience.
