Annotation"Slow and steady wins the race" is the conclusion of Aesop's fable. In ensuring that we do not fall asleep on the way (like the hare), is there a danger that in the race to demonstrate improved outcomes, we will miss the opportunity to build knowledge about how partnerships can deliver better results for people who use services? This article puts the case for partnerships, but that there must be a more patient, focused approach to evaluation that helps us to learn and develop new questions. (RH).
