KI Lifestyle4Health network seminar
Seminar description
This hybrid seminar focuses on the project Co-fam, aiming to co-design and evaluate a novel model for family support linking school and primary health care to promote healthy lifestyle and prevent and manage overweight and obesity among children 6-12 years. Two evidence-based family support programs, the universal Healthy School Start (HSS) and the targeted More and Less (ML) will be combined and delivered in a municipality with a high level of childhood obesity. The project will be carried out in two phases. In phase 1, the research team together with school and primary health care personnel and parents will co-design the model based on the implementation framework EPIS (Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, Sustainment). Both programs will be then adapted to children 6-12 years. Phase 2 consists of an 18-month controlled hybrid type 2 effectiveness-implementation study using mixed methods.
