Influencing practices of civil society-led intersectoral networks to improve living environments in the Montreal setting
Population health and well-being are created through access to the necessary resources in living environments. Some of these can be addressed at the municipal level. Intersectoral action is seen as an appropriate strategy to face such challenges. Civic organizations involved in intersectoral coalitions can exert political influence upon municipal authorities to produce healthier living environments. This paper examines influencing practices of ci…
Two strategies used by local intersectoral networks to create healthier environments
Action aimed at developing healthier living conditions requires intersectoral collaboration, both across sectors and between levels of government. It also calls for the commitment of political and institutional authorities at municipal and higher levels. This article focuses on strategies of local intersectoral networks rooted in civil society for addressing living conditions. A longitudinal cross-case analysis was performed on eight case studies…
A midrange theory of local cross-sector action based on the actor-network theory
Given the value of cross-sector collaborations in solving complex societal problems, experts are now recommending that research focus on documenting process–effect linkages. This paper proposes a validated midrange theory on the process–effect links of local cross-sector action on urban living conditions. The theory expands from an initial prospective study showing that changes were produced by sequences of a limited number (n = 12) of transition…

Self-Evaluation Tool for Action in Partnership
This article presents the translation and cultural adaptation, into Canadian English, of the Outil diagnostique de l'action en partenariat, a tool widely used to support the practice of partnerships since its creation in French, in Quebec, in 2008. The theoretical foundations and properties of the original tool are presented, followed by a summary of methodological guidelines and a description of the process and results. The methodology involved …
Linking process and effects of intersectoral action on local neighbourhoods
After 25 years of intersectoral practice to increase health promotion resources, there is little scientific literature linking analysis of processes to observation of effects. Applying Actor-Network Theory, this article examines how the effects of intersectoral action are produced and can be attributed to its processes. A prospective multiple case study (2013-2016) was conducted on Neighbourhood Committees (NCs) in Montreal (Canada). Three NCs we…
Understanding the challenges of intersectoral action in public health through a case study of early childhood programmes and services
After two decades of intersectoral public health action, the literature reports considerable ongoing difficulty in achieving this aim. This article analyses two of the challenges of intersectoral action: (1) ensuring convergence among the interests and resources of sectoral actors, and (2) coordinating the multiplicity of sectoral programmes. A case study employing Actor–Network Theory is used to provide an in-depth understanding of the persisten…
Unpacking complexity in public health interventions with the Actor–Network Theory
This article proposes a sociologically informed theoretical and methodological framework to address the complexity of public health interventions (PHI). It first proposes three arguments in favour of using the Actor-Network Theory (ANT) for the framework. ANT: (1) deals with systems made of human and non-human entities and proposes a relational view of action; (2) provides an understanding of the intervention-context interactions and (3) is a too…
Intersectoral Mobilization in Child Development
In 2006, the department of public health in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, conducted the Survey of the School Readiness of Montreal Children. After unveiling the results in February 2008, it launched an appeal for intersectoral mobilization. This article documents the chain of events in the collective decision-making process that fostered ownership of the survey results and involvement in action. It also documents the impacts of those findings on inte…
L’analyse des interventions complexes en santé publique
Trois conceptions de la nature des programmes
This article discusses three perspectives on the nature of programs to clarify the purposes of an evaluation. An empirical realist program design views programs as real objects that allow dysfunctional and problematic objects to be repaired. In that view, the purpose of the evaluation is to determine the efficacy of programs to solve problems. An idealist design views both programs and the problems they address as representations, which leads to …

L’Outil diagnostique de l’action en partenariat
Les dispositifs de la participation aux étapes stratégiques de l’évaluation
A growing number of tools are now available to enhance the validity and social relevance of knowledge produced through the participatory spaces that program evaluation makes possible. Tools that facilitate a shared understanding of a program and its results are of this nature. However, evaluation teams are generally less equipped to support participation through the strategic processes of planning an evaluation or of redesigning a program based o…
Integrating Social Theory Into Public Health Practice
The innovative practice that resulted from the Ottawa Charter challenges public health knowledge about programming and evaluation. Specifically, there is a need to formulate program theory that embraces social determinants of health and local actors’ mobilization for social change. Likewise, it is imperative to develop a theory of evaluation that fosters reflexive understanding of public health programs engaged in social change. We believe advanc…

L’innovation sociale, une condition pour accroître la qualité de l’action en partenariat dans le champ de la santé publique
The effectiveness of participatory planning and partnership practices in the public health field is a neglected issue. While the literature shows evidence of the meagre results of technocratic models, few studies describe the conditions for the success of participatory approaches. This article presents the results of a comparative study of four participative regional planning experiments in Montreal, focusing on the relationship between participa…
