Active Living Research was renewed by The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation on December 1, 2007. The program will now focus on supporting research to inform policy and environmental strategies to increase physical activity among children and adolescents, decrease their sedentary behaviors and prevent obesity. We will place special emphasis on strategies with the potential to reach the low-income and racial/ethnic populations at highest risk for obesity. Findings are expected to advance RWJF’s efforts to reverse the childhood obesity epidemic by 2015. Active Living Research is managing a new $15.4 million 5-year authorization (2007-2012) to support scientifically rigorous, solution-oriented research from investigators and scholars representing diverse disciplines and backgrounds.
The goals are to:
> establish a strong research base regarding policy and environmental factors that influence physical activity and body weight in children, as well as effective policy and environmental strategies for reversing the childhood obesity epidemic;
> build a vibrant, multidisciplinary field of research and a diverse network of researchers;
> ensure that findings are effectively communicated to inform policy debates and guide the development of effective solutions.
