Capacity Building Workshop: Health & Social Care Economics

Join us for a focused two‑hour workshop on Health & Social Care Economics, led by Matthew Taylor, CEO of the York Health Economics Consortium – an internationally recognised leader in economic evaluation and modelling.

This two‑hour interactive session is designed for decision‑makers, project developers, and innovators seeking to strengthen the impact, efficiency, and sustainability of their work in health and social care.

Why Health Economics Matters

Health economics examines how resources are allocated to maximise health, wellbeing, and social impact. It provides tools to understand:

• What interventions work best
• For whom they work
• At what cost
• How to prioritise limited resources

For project developers and innovators, health economics is essential for demonstrating the value of new interventions, building strong business cases, and designing scalable, cost‑effective solutions.

A Competitive Edge for EU Project Proposals

Integrating health economics helps you:

• Quantify outcomes and demonstrate real impact
• Show value for money and return on investment
• Capture broader benefits such as wellbeing and social impact
• Build credibility through evidence‑based methods

What the Training will cover

This workshop introduces key concepts of health economics with a strong focus on practical application. Topics include:

• Principles of health economic evaluation and their role in decision‑making
• Understanding and measuring costs and benefits, including non‑financial outcomes such as quality of life, wellbeing, and societal impact
• Economic modelling and how models support decisions and address uncertainty

Participants will gain actionable insights into how economic evaluation can strengthen both funding decisions and EU project proposals.

What you will gain

By the end of the workshop, participants will leave with:

• Practical tools for cost‑effectiveness and budget impact analysis
• A clear understanding of economic models used in funding and policy decisions
• Methods to capture non‑financial and societal benefits (e.g., QALYs, SROI, MCDA)
• Skills to enhance the quality, credibility, and impact of EU project proposals

Why attend

This training offers a valuable opportunity to deepen your understanding of economic evaluation and apply it directly to your work. Whether you aim to improve funding decisions, design more impactful interventions, or increase the competitiveness of your EU proposals, this workshop provides the tools and insights you need.
