The aim of this study is to introduce an economic evaluation approach into the process of redesigning old urban street infrastructures. Several variants of street cross-sections are proposed for redesigning, both in Krakow, Poland and in Bari, Italy, and the optimal sustainable design options are suggested. An experimental economic method is then applied to evaluate the proposed sustainable options. Social return on investment (SROI), as a form of evaluation that contributes to a wider analysis of public investments and uses monetary values to represent the social and economic results. It provides information on creating economic and environmentally sustainable values. Economic evaluation results suggest how society perceives the implementation of sustainable transport investments by assuming the most important aims to be addressed in an urban context, such as sustainability, accessibility and affordability. The innovative evaluation approach enforces the decision-making process and helps to properly allocate economic resources.

Tenant Farming

This paper analyzes the socio-economic viability of forest tenant farming, a land leasing system that the Lower St. Lawrence Model Forest has been testing in Quebec since 1994. First, forest tenant farming is described, as is the approach used to evaluate this system. The evaluation approach is based on four criteria: viability of tenant farms, costs of general supervision and technical support, socio-economic impact, and potential for extending the model. The results of five studies are then summarized from the perspective of the evaluation criteria, and the principal issues raised by the testing and extension of forest tenant farming are identified. The paper concludes that this management system is socio-economically viable. Key words: forest tenure, forest tenant farming, community forestry, sustainable rural development

Background: The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) use economic modelling to inform judgements whenever further insight is required for decision-making. Doing so for public health guidance poses several challenges. The study’s objective was to investigate the level of heterogeneity in NICE’s public health economic models with regards to economic evaluation techniques, perspectives on outcomes and the measurement of non-health benefits. Methods: A review of all economic modelling reports published by NICE’s Centre for Public Health (CPH) as part of their guidance. Results: The review identified 56 eligible pieces of public health over the relevant period. Of these, 43 used economic modelling and 13 used no formal economic model. In total 61 economic models were used. Though the CPH specifies a reference case, in practice there is a large amount of variability from one model to the next. The most common perspective used for evaluations was that of the National Health Service (NHS); the most common economic evaluation approach was cost-utility analysis (CUA). 23 of the 56 topics used other combinations of perspective and technique, which allowed them to incorporate non-health effects, such as productivity, the effect on taxes raised and benefits spending, costs to the criminal justice sector, the effect on educational attainment and general wellbeing. Conclusions: NICE regularly updates its reference case, and non-CUA evaluation techniques have become more prominent in recent years. The results highlight the genuine advantages of having a variety of economic evaluation techniques available, which can be matched with the given topic. While it is always necessary to be wary of the possibility of gamesmanship and cherry picking, there is a surprising alignment between many approaches in certain circumstances.

External validity or generalizability is a major challenge in the economic evaluation of telemedicine. There are two possible ways of increasing generalizability: the first is to use a pragmatic trial design so it better reflects normal patient caseload and everyday practice. The second is to use existing data from the literature and decision modelling to estimate the expected costs and outcomes of different alternatives. The first will increase generalizability to other patients than those in the trial and the second will increase generalizability from place to place. The objective and role of the evaluation will decide the most appropriate evaluation approach. Pragmatic trials should be used in studies where the objective is to provide measurements of costs and outcomes for a specific group of patients in a particular setting. This approach is highly relevant in telemedicine evaluations where the objective is to support local investments strategies and reimbursement systems. Decision modelling provides an overall structure for a decision problem and a formal analysis of the implications of different decisions. Modelling can simulate a trial or mimic a current system or a system that decision makers would like to use. Modelling is a useful approach when decisions need to be made about whether to invest in telemedicine within a broader context.
