Recommendations for developing urban interventions to promote physical activity : interviews with key informants in Europe
© 2023 The Author(s). Published by Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group..
Although there is growing evidence on what interventions can promote physical activity in urban environments, guidance on how to get these interventions implemented is lacking in a European context. To understand the process of developing urban interventions to promote physical activity, we conducted 13 key informant interviews with professionals working in urban development in five European countries, though some worked in more than one country. Participants described their experiences, challenges and recommendations across six European countries. The main challenges faced were political environments, unsupportive contexts, communication issues, working with other sectors, resource limitations and evaluations. We presented recommendations made by participants which can overcome these challenges when developing urban interventions to promote physical activity. Recommendations included obtaining cross-party political support for a project; working with local communities right from the beginning; involving all stakeholders and encouraging their commitment through identification of common goals; asking the market for solutions when faced with resource constraints, and using existing data to facilitate evaluations.
