Bridging Bystander Intervention and Workplace Inclusion
Bystander intervention is widely assumed to foster workplace inclusion, yet no studies have directly examined this relationship. Through abductive qualitative analysis of 53 interviews across two contrasting organisations—a consulting firm and a remote mine site—we investigate how bystander intervention relates to workplace inclusion for targets, bystanders and transgressors. Our findings challenge the assumption that bystander intervention autom…
Nurturing connection with nature
Connection with nature has been associated with greater participation in a range of biodiversity conservation behaviours, and is increasingly being recognised as a potentially useful policy tool to address conservation outcomes. Yet, understanding of how connection with nature may be nurtured remains poorly understood. This research investigates the extent to which spending time in nature, and in different types of nature, predicted change in con…
Speaking of nature
Human relationships with nature are increasingly being recognized as an important factor in environmental conservation. Understanding how people perceive and know nature, and the language they use to describe nature, their concepts of nature, could have important implications for conservation policy and management. This empirical research sought to examine and categorize concepts of nature, and explore how such thoughts relate to connection with …
The INSPIRE Framework
Public administrators rely on written communications to send information to citizens and stakeholders, and they are among the heaviest users of the postal service. Behavioral science research has identified several techniques that public administrators can use to increase compliance with written requests and, in turn, increase effectiveness. Currently, however, many written communications from government bodies are not written in a manner that ut…
How can planning add value to obesity prevention programmes? A qualitative study of planning and planners in the Healthy Towns programme in England
Lost in translation? Theory, policy and practice in systems-based environmental approaches to obesity prevention in the Healthy Towns programme in England
PP48 The Tension between Innovation, Politics and Evidence Generation in Environmental Approaches to Tackling Obesity
Background In 2008 Department of Health commissioned nine the ‘Healthy Towns’ (HT) in England to implement and evaluate community-based environmental interventions to prevent obesity. Healthy Towns were encouraged to test whole-town approaches to tackling the obesogenic environment, which included ‘innovative’ interventions. This research examines the role evidence played in the development and implementation of the HT programme at the national a…
The role and status of evidence and innovation in the healthy towns programme in England
BACKGROUND: In 2008, the Healthy Community Challenge Fund commissioned nine 'healthy towns' in England to implement and evaluate community-based environmental interventions to prevent obesity. This paper examines the role of evidence in informing intervention development, innovation and the potential for programmes to contribute to the evidence base on the effectiveness of interventions that tackle population obesity. METHOD: Twenty qualitative i…
OP64 More than Obesity Prevention? Defining Outcomes in the Healthy Towns Programme in England
Background In 2008, £30 million was invested by UK Government in the Healthy Towns (HT) Programme in England. Nine urban areas were selected to develop and implement interventions to tackle the obesogenic environment. These involved multi-sector approaches to promoting physical activity and improve diet through the use of environmental interventions. In this paper, we explore how stakeholders conceptualised and defined programme outcomes in relat…
