Measuring the impact of becoming a health-promoting campus: Creating a comprehensive evaluation model.

Objective: As more institutions adopt the Okanagan Charter (2015) to become health-promoting campuses, the question of how to effectively evaluate the impact of this work remains key. This article describes the development of an evaluation model designed to measure the collective impact of embedding holistic health into all aspects of campus culture.

Methods: Drawing from social cognitive, social ecological, and organizational change frameworks, the evaluation model provides a tiered, mixed-methods approach for assessing the impact of cross-sector health-promoting programs, policies, and campus culture change on student well-being.
