“…This paper explored external relationships (organizational and individual) as barriers and facilitators for equitable community-based implementation of a COVID-19 vaccination intervention leveraging FBOs to reach underserved and hard-to-reach Hispanic and Marshallese communities. Engagement with FBOs to promote health equity and mitigate health disparities among Hispanic and/or Marshallese communities is described in detail in prior publications ( 41 , 49 , 57 – 60 ). Importantly, vaccination events held in partnership with FBOs reached a higher proportion of Hispanic and Marshallese persons compared to vaccination events in secular, community contexts, and individuals vaccinated at these events were more likely to report completely trusting the COVID-19 vaccine ( 49 ).…”

BackgroundWhile relationships and connectedness among organizations have been included in implementation theories, models, and frameworks, the increased attention to health equity in implementation science raises the urgency of understanding the role of relationships external to the implementing organization. This paper addresses this gap through an exploration of the role of external relationships in community-based, equity-focused interventions.MethodsThis study focuses on an equity-focused, community-based COVID-19 vaccination intervention in Arkansas, drawing upon long-term community-engaged relationships among University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and the Hispanic and Marshallese Islander communities. We used an exploratory qualitative descriptive design to examine barriers and facilitators to implementation of COVID-19 vaccination events analyzing in-depth qualitative interviews with implementation team members (n = 17).ResultsAll participants described pre-existing relationships among the implementing organization, partner organizations, and communities as a key implementation determinant for this equity-focused program. At the inter-organizational level, external relationships included formal connections and informal relationships among staff (e.g., communication channels from prior partnerships). At the individual level, strong external relationships with the community were facilitators leveraging long-term engagement, community familiarity, and staff from the communities of focus. Strong external relationships facilitated program reach in underserved communities through three mechanisms: (1) reduced time required to establish functional working relationships among partners; (2) accessibility and cultural congruence of health services; and (3) increased trust among community members. Barriers to implementation also existed in external relationships, but had less influence than facilitators.ConclusionsAchieving health equity in implementation science requires greater understanding of external relationships as implementation determinants. This exploratory study makes a significant contribution to the literature by describing the types of external relationships that facilitate equitable implementation and identifying the mechanisms through which they may work. We argue that approaches to community engagement drawn from community-engaged research approaches may be useful, as these processes require investment in building/maintaining formal and informal organizational and interpersonal relationships. Further research is needed to understand connections among external relationships and other implementation determinants.

The study aims to analyze the Islamic learning management model of Islamic boarding schools in Thailand through planning, organizing, implementing and evaluating. The method used in this study is qualitative. Data collection is carried out by observation, interview and documentation techniques. The data analysis technique is carried out through data reduction, data display, data interpretation, and finally, making conclusions. The results of research on the management of Darul Barakah cottage show that cottage management is already running, with the central manager being the leader of the ustadz. However, in implementation, it is assisted by the administrators in their respective portions, duties and responsibilities. Thus Darul Barakah lodge has done an excellent managerial even though it could be better. With a strong desire and enthusiasm to advance the education system, the learning management of Pondok Darul Barakah can change from the original Salafi form can be reconstructed to modern learning. The implication is that the learning management system of Islamic boarding schools in Thailand is the same as in Indonesia because they adopt the existing Islamic boarding school education system in Indonesia, starting from the admission of students and the learning system to graduation.
