Addressing policy needs through integrated research: the example of the PASTA project

Slide2

The urban challenge

|

2

Close linkage between citizens’ health and transport systems’ performance, we know:

Half of all trips shorter than 5 kilometres are undertaken by car.

Physical inactivity is the fourth leading risk factor for death worldwide.

Globally one in three adults is not active enough.

The policy challenge: How can we effectively increase the amount of physical activity of citizens in the urban environment?

Translating the policy need into research questions:

This is where PASTA comes in:

Connect dots sustainable transport – health

Identify key factors active mobility/travel as part of people’s everyday lives

Assess a range of related approaches and policy options;

Longitudinal survey on physical activity, travel, road traffic collisions and air pollutionUp to 14,000 people from seven European citiesProduce a tool and guidance for policy

makers.

Support evidence-based policy making, using a

transdisciplinary

approach

1. Bringing together the right people: policy makers and an interdisciplinary group of researchers

- Strong emphasis on the involvement of policy makers from the start of the project

- An interdisciplinary group of researchers from a leading institutes and research

- Support from an advisory of experts in the fields of sociology, planning and health

Project findings will feed into the redevelopment of

WHO/Europe Health Economic Assessment Tool (HEAT)

- add new functions and modules.It facilitates population-wide assessment, translating the effects of active mobility measures into a quantitative evidence-based, evaluation.This tool, together with guidance on good practice, will be made available for free online.
