Evaluation begins in the planning phase,when goals and measurable objectives are established and goal-attaining activities are identified.After implementing the intervention,only the meeting of objectives and effects of the intervening activities have to be assessed.Participation by community members and improvement of the health of the population may be measured through the evaluation phase,but would not demonstrate completion of this phase.The evaluation phase may determine if the participants' health improved,but improvement of health is not part of the completion of this phase.
