  11. Key Take-Aways • The need to understand the contextual influences that subvert, neutralize, intensify or otherwise influence interventions is well recognized. • But, the role that context plays in the design and evaluation of health and social care interventions remains understudied. • Mixed-methods studies are likely to be critical. – Researchers should expend greater effort earlier in the development and evaluation process to optimize interventions, identify causal mechanisms and characterize contextual influences. – The development of quantitative measures to explore structural features of context should be a future focus, as should better reporting of interventions and the development of guidance to support explicit descriptions of context. – Encouraging the conduct of mixed-method process evaluations alongside trials and other evaluations will require new norms and expectations of research and associated funding commitments, attention to collaborative relationships and changes in publishing practices. lewin.com | 11
