Project description
A holistic approach to physical activity
Europeans are not getting enough physical activity. Sedentary lifestyles are pervasive, posing a critical threat to public health across Europe. Insufficient physical activity in youth and throughout life contributes to a myriad of health issues. With the support of Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, the INDEEP project pioneers an innovative research and training network, aiming to create a new generation of experts dedicated to unravelling the determinants of physical activity and developing evidence-based interventions. By bridging gaps in harmonised European data and addressing research needs, INDEEP builds on the success of past initiatives to provide a comprehensive toolbox for intervention development, fostering evidence-based strategies for improving physical activity in youth and throughout life.
Objective
The INtervention on the DEterminants of, and Expertise in, Physical activity behaviours (INDEEP) research programme and training network will train a new generation of doctoral researchers who will gain expertise in innovative, interdisciplinary research activity in physical activity (PA) and health promotion. Specifically, the doctoral network will support the theoretical and applied development of the state-of-the-art of determinants of PA and evidence-based population level PA interventions, by promoting international, interdisciplinary and intersectoral mobility across the PA for health sector. Progressing the work achieved in the JPI HDHL DEDIPAC KH, COST Action CA19101 (DE-PASS) responded directly to the gaps and research needs in relation to the absence of European harmonised data on PA and their determinants. Grounded in DE-PASS, the INDEEP network seeks to generate excellence in research and training, providing graduates that will advance the state-of-the-art in PA promotion, through a comprehensive understanding of
the associated determinants. INDEEP addresses the need for a genuinely multidisciplinary approach to addressing the challenges of improving PA in youth and across the lifespan, arising from the poor efficacy of existing approaches to PA change. The network ultimately aims to provide an intervention development toolbox, supporting the integration of determinants of PA behaviours, behaviour change theory and intervention co-creation to aid in the development of evidence-based interventions which integrate top-down and bottom-up intervention approaches. Outcomes beyond the lifetime of this project have the potential to have important societal and global impacts, including contributing to achieve many of the Bangkok Declaration Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including contributing to good health and well-being, gender equality, work and economic growth, reduced societal inequalities, sustainable communities and climate action.
