Outcome Funding
Author: Harold S. WilliamsPublisher: Rensselaerville Inst
ISBN: 9780962979859
Category : Grants-in-aid
Languages : en
Pages : 226
Book Description
At all of its levels, a primary function of government is to give out money. Government "funds" many groups to carry out public purposes. This book presents a new approach which shifts funding to investment. It replaces the traditional "Request for proposal" process with a sharp focus on key investor questions: "What are we buying?" & "What is the probability we will get it?" OUTCOME FUNDING asks grant-seekers to define their customers, their product & their performance target. The long proposal becomes a short plan as government (as well as foundations & other donors) seek to make their money work as hard as do their people. A key gain to grant-seekers; they no longer have to write one long document to get money & another to spend it. The framework presented has been tested in a number of states & local governments throughout the US. Authors are Harold S. Williams, President of The Rensselaerville Institute, Arthur Y. Webb, President & Chief Executive Officer of the Village Care of NY & William J. Phillips, Vice President & Chief Operating Officer of Programs & Products at The Rensselaerville Institute.

Outcomes Based Funding and Race in Higher Education
Author: Tiffany JonesPublisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319494368
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 171
Book Description
This book examines how Performance or Outcomes Based Funding (POBF) policies impact racial equity in higher education. Over the last decade, higher education has become entrenched in a movement that holds colleges and universities more accountable to its supporters. There are pressures to answer questions about student outcomes and performance, the value of education, the effectiveness of instructors, and the ability of existing leaders to manage efficiently and effectively. It is within this climate that states have adopted POBF policies. Through POBF, public colleges and universities receive state funding through formulas that no longer rely solely on student enrollment, but are instead based on student outcomes. This book provides an overview for policymakers of how racial equity has been addressed, the impact of these approaches, and recommendations for moving forward.

Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science
Author: National Research CouncilPublisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 0309316855
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 255
Book Description
The past half-century has witnessed a dramatic increase in the scale and complexity of scientific research. The growing scale of science has been accompanied by a shift toward collaborative research, referred to as "team science." Scientific research is increasingly conducted by small teams and larger groups rather than individual investigators, but the challenges of collaboration can slow these teams' progress in achieving their scientific goals. How does a team-based approach work, and how can universities and research institutions support teams? Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science synthesizes and integrates the available research to provide guidance on assembling the science team; leadership, education and professional development for science teams and groups. It also examines institutional and organizational structures and policies to support science teams and identifies areas where further research is needed to help science teams and groups achieve their scientific and translational goals. This report offers major public policy recommendations for science research agencies and policymakers, as well as recommendations for individual scientists, disciplinary associations, and research universities. Enhancing the Effectiveness of Team Science will be of interest to university research administrators, team science leaders, science faculty, and graduate and postdoctoral students.

Using Results-Based Financing to Achieve Maternal & Child Health

Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
The Health Results Innovation Trust Fund (HRITF) was created with support from the Governments of Norway and the United Kingdom with the goal of supporting results-based financing (RBF) approaches in the health sector, for achievement of the health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). This report outlines the successes, challenges, and lessons learned over the past five years. HRITF’s portfolio now has 27 country programs around the world. Preliminary results are very promising. We are excited to see the operational data of the programs showing improvements in coverage and quality of maternal and child health services across the different countries. The experience so far indicates that RBF approaches can help to strengthen core health systems, making them more accountable and delivering greater value for money, by shifting the focus from inputs to results. Consistently monitoring program data is enabling us to see variations in performance across facilities, regions and countries, and helps make program adjustments to strengthen implementation and learn about the factors influencing success or failure of programs.
