Description

This Event forms part of the ESCR-funded Series on Ageing and Physical Activity http://seminars.ecehh.org/

This seminar will advance understanding of the policy process as it relates to physical activity in older age by critically discussing policy perspectives and evidence needs. It will help stakeholders focus their lobby efforts by encouraging a critical examination into how the policy process can lead to more effective distribution of resources. Speakers from the policy sphere, key stakeholder groups, and academia will provide various perspectives about engaging with the policy process to produce successful outcomes.
