  • Co-production of a youth advocacy video on the harms of e-cigarette advertising in Scotland

    Open AccessMarissa J Smith, Caroline Vaczy et al.ARTICLEHealth Promotion International2025

    This study aimed to investigate young people’s exposure to and perceptions of e-cigarette advertising to co-produce an advocacy video. This focus on e-cigarette marketing and its targeted appeal to young people comes at a crucial juncture, as policymakers in the UK and Scotland channel considerable efforts into shaping new regulations in response to these concerns, such as banning disposable e-cigarettes. The research to co-design a video was con…

    Open AccessJenevieve Mannell, Pepe Tevaga et al.ARTICLEGlobal Public Health2023

    Despite the widespread adoption of Theories of Change (ToC) for programme evaluation, the process of collaboratively developing these theories is rarely outlined or critical analysed, limiting broader methodological discussions on co-production. We developed a ToC as part of E le Sauā le Alofa ('Love Shouldn't Hurt') - a participatory peer-research study to prevent violence against women (VAW) in Samoa. The ToC was developed in four phases: (1) s…

  • Expert views on high fat, salt and sugar food marketing policies to tackle obesity and improve dietary behaviours in the UK

    Open AccessShona Hilton, Caroline Vaczy et al.ARTICLEBMC Public Health2023

    While HFSS marketing restrictions have a role to play and send a strong signal - provided they are implemented comprehensively - investment in these policies needs to be part of wider efforts to tackle the underlying drivers of obesity
