Learning through living
Experiential education (EE) emphasizes learning through direct engagement linking academic study with real-world practice. In gerontology, EE often includes intergenerational experiences such as residency programs where students and older adults live together. In this study, we examine the ICER Award, an intergenerational residency in which a graduate gerontology student lived for 12 months in a social housing building for older adults. In exchan…
The Impact of Health Geography on Public Health Research, Policy, and Practice in Canada
The link between geography and health means that the places we occupy-where we are born, where we live, where we work, and where we play-have a direct impact on our health, including our experiences of health. A subdiscipline of human geography, health geography studies the relationships between our environments and the impact of factors that operate within those environments on human health. Researchers have focused on the social and physical en…
Secondary School Nutrition Policy Compliance in Ontario and Alberta, Canada
(1) Objective: To longitudinally assess food and beverages sold in vending machines in secondary schools (grades 9-12) participating in the COMPASS study (2015/2016 and 2018/2019) and (2) to examine if patterns and trends observed in previous years (2012/2013 to 2014/2015) are consistent with lack of policy compliance in Ontario and Alberta, Canada. (2) Methods: Policy compliance was assessed through comparing nutritional information on drink (e.…
Exploring Factors Contributing to the Implementation of Ontario’s Healthy Kids Community Challenge
(1) Background: To explore factors contributing to the Healthy Kids Community Challenge (HKCC) program implementation; (2) Methods: Data were collected through a quantitative survey (n = 124) and in-depth telephone interviews (n = 16) with program providers. Interviews were recorded and transcribed for thematic analysis using NVivo; (3) Results: Provincial funding and in-kind support from community partners were key. Initiatives were feasible to …
Priority setting for school nutrition research
An early implementation assessment of Ontario’s Healthy Kids Community Challenge
Results indicate that the HKCC was considered beneficial for enhancing access to health promoting programs, could be feasibly implemented with adherence to centrally-developed social marketing messages, and was amendable to local adaptation. Despite this, few private partnerships were reported. Going forward, there is opportunity to further evaluate factors contributing to HKCC program implementation, particularly as it relates to buy-in from int…
Principles, Approaches, and Methods for Evaluation in Indigenous Contexts
This article describes findings from a scoping review of the grey literature to identify principles, approaches, methods, tools, and frameworks for conducting program evaluation in Indigenous contexts, reported from 2000–2015 in Canada, the United States, New Zealand, and Australia. It includes consultation with key informants to validate and enrich interpretation of findings. The fifteen guiding principles, and the approaches, methods, tools, an…
Can knowledge exchange support the implementation of a health-promoting schools approach? Perceived outcomes of knowledge exchange in the Compass study
This research contributes to the limited literature regarding outcomes of knowledge brokering in public health and knowledge exchange in school health research. However, since not all schools engaged in knowledge brokering, and not all schools that engaged discussed these outcomes, further research is needed to determine the amount of engagement required for change and examine the process of COMPASS knowledge brokering to consider how to increase…
Compliance with school nutrition policies in Ontario and Alberta
Stakeholder Perspectives on Implementing Menu Labeling in a Cafeteria Setting
Both internal and external factors can support the voluntary implementation of menu-labeling programs
Examining local-level factors shaping school nutrition policy implementation in Ontario, Canada
Objective Increasing numbers of overweight and obese youth draw attention to the school as an important setting for targeted nutrition interventions, given that it is where they spend a majority of their waking time. The objective of the present study was to explore local-level factors shaping the implementation of a school nutrition policy. Design In-depth, semi-structured interviews were conducted in person or via the telephone (a maximum of 60…
To disrupt and displace
In 1996, in Geneva, the World Health Assembly declared the violence as a major and growing public health problem. Others have gone further in describing (sexual) violence against women as a weapon of terror. In the local community of Hamilton, Ontario Canada (population approximately 500,000), domestic violence represents 25% of the workload of the local police service. The literature has shown that violence in general, and domestic violence in p…
