Partnerships in a heating climate
BACKGROUND: Increasingly, heat-health action plans are being developed and implemented across Europe, requiring collaboration across public agencies and sectors to effectively protect the population from heat-related health risks. District-level actors play a key role in implementing heat protection. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to examine how collaborative practices surrounding heat protection are facilitated in German districts with a particular focus o…
Participatory policy processes in a black box? Stakeholder interviews about the development of Germany ́s national nutrition strategy
BACKGROUND: Stakeholder participation in policy processes can make processes more effective, democratic, and foster consensus in complex policy fields - if managed well. However, little is known about the conditions driving meaningful stakeholder participation in national-level policymaking. OBJECTIVE: We investigated Germany's 2024 national nutrition strategy to understand conditions for meaningful stakeholder participation. METHOD: We invited a…
New government, old habits? The opportunity for a turning point in prevention health policies in Germany is now
Germany has long lagged behind other high-income countries in terms of implementing evidence-based prevention policies. This is reflected by the relatively low life expectancy of the population, high numbers of non-communicable diseases and health inequality in the country. Against this backdrop, we discuss the initial plans of the new German government for prevention, and suggest a way forward. By shifting from a focus on curative measures to ev…
How beliefs and policy characteristics shape the public acceptability of nutritional policies—A survey study in Germany
Pre-registered survey on German National Nutrition Strategy policy acceptability. • Most policies (except 2) were acceptable to the sample. • Acceptability for all policies varied by political party preference. • Perceived policy equity, societal and personal effectiveness predicted acceptability. • Participant values regarding sustainability and state intervention predicted acceptability. Despite the high prevalence of obesity in Germany, few ef…
Socio-economic inequalities in body mass index among preschool children
Background: Overweight in childhood is considered to be one of the most serious public health challenges. Many studies have investigated individual-level determinants of children's body mass index (BMI), yet studies exploring determinants at the meso-level are sparse. The aim of our study was to examine how a sports focus at early childhood education and care (ECEC) centers moderates the effect of parental socio-economic position (SEP) on childre…
Subjective experiences of the addictive potential of E-cigarettes
Background: Electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes) have specific properties, such as their taste, vapor, or technicality, which might facilitate experiences of addiction. In this study, we aimed to investigate the subjective experience of the addictive potential of e-cigarettes using qualitative methodology. Method: We conducted semi-structured focus groups with adult e-cigarette users to discuss subjective experiences of addiction. Informed by Bra…
Young people’s experiences of Covid-19 messaging at the start of the UK lockdown
Young people want to be listened to and feel they have a part to play in responding to a national crisis such as the COVID-19 epidemic. To reduce the likelihood of disenfranchising the next generation, Government and the media should focus on developing messaging that reflects young people's values and concerns and to provide opportunities for young people to become involved in responses to future crises
