Toronto, Ontario

This presentation will describe the work of the Collaboration and present the main conclusions from four major reports about

  • Interventions for promoting early child development,
  • Interventions that address multiple risk behaviours in youth,
  • Interventions that tackle the obesogenic aspects of the built environment, and
  • Interventions that prevent or delay functional decline in the elderly.

Finally, we will reflect on the success the Collaboration has had in influencing Scottish public health policy at a national and local level.

Guest speaker:  Sally Haw, Senior Scientific Advisor, Scottish Collaboration for Public Health Research & Policy (SCPHRP), Edinburgh; and Honorary Reader, Public Health Sciences, University of Edinburgh
