Evaluating a midwifery leadership programme: a process evaluation study

This study demonstrates the utility of a process evaluation framework in evaluating midwifery education programmes, using the Midwifery Leadership Programme in India as an example. It is recommended that future research on evaluating midwifery education initiatives adopt implementation science frameworks to evaluate both the implementation process and the mechanisms driving programmes' impact for change, thereby informing the design and delivery of effective midwifery education programmes.
