Implementation Science 3.0

Bianca AlbersBianca Albers is a co-founder and the chair of the European Implementation Collaborative (EIC). She is a seasoned organisational leader, investigator and project manager with 15+ years’ experience in promoting the use of evidence in policy and practice in child, youth and family services in multiple Western countries. With a background in political science she also has a great interest in the field of evidence-based policy and policy implementation.In her work, Bianca focuses on the development, implementation and evaluation of evidence-informed programs, practices and service models; and on building the capacity within organisations and services to develop, implement and sustain evidence-informed practices and policies. A key element in this work is the identification, selection and translation of current best and relevant evidence.Aron ShlonskyAron Shlonsky is Professor and Head of Department (Social Work) at Monash University School of Primary and Allied Health Care and was formerly Professor of Evidence Informed Practice (Social Work) and Director of the Centre for Applied Research on Effective Services at the University of Melbourne School of Health Sciences. He is an Associate Editor at Children and Youth Services Review and is Associate Editor at the Campbell Collaboration Knowledge Translation and Implementation Coordinating Group.After graduating from UC Berkeley with a doctorate in social welfare and a master’s degree in public health, Shlonsky was an Assistant Professor at Columbia University School of Social Work and was then Factor-Inwentash Chair in Child Welfare at the University of Toronto Faculty of Social Work. Shlonsky is known internationally for his work in child welfare, particularly in the generation and implementation of evidence to inform practice and policy as well as longitudinal data analysis in the child and family services field.Robyn MildonDr. Robyn Mildon is the founding executive director of the Centre for Evidence and Implementation (CEI).
