[A Tool to Facilitate Transferability of Health Promotion Interventions: ASTAIRE]

The complexity of health promotion interventions raises the problem of the transferability of their results from one setting to another. A tool has been developed and validated: ASTAIRE (AnalySe de la Transférabilité et Accompagnement à l'adaptation des InteRventions en promotion de la santE) (analysis of the transferability and support to adaptation of health promotion interventions). The purpose of this article is to present the French language version of this tool to enable French-speaking stakeholders and scientists to adopt this tool and use it for the purposes of development of evidence-based health promotion. ASTAIRE comprises 23 transferability criteria classified in four categories: population, environment, implementation, transfer support. It is composed of two grids, one for reporting of initial interventions according to transferability criteria and the other to analyse the comparability of settings and to facilitate transfer. This tool is designed to support the choice of the intervention most adapted to the setting and to facilitate transfer of this intervention. Use of this tool can promote the development of evidence-based approaches according to an adaptive logic of interventions. Collective use of this tool in project logics can distinguish the key functions of interventions, which determine their efficacy and which must be transferred, from aspects related to the form, which can be adapted to the setting.
