Whole Systems Approach to Obesity Prevention in Fife : Children and Young People
Whole Systems Approach to Obesity Prevention in Fife : Children and Young People
In Fife we’re taking a whole systems approach to obesity prevention amongst children and young people – developing a shared understanding of the challenge in a way that will encourage ownership and prioritise actions to address inequalities.
This work aims to take a new approach to work on obesity prevention in Fife by taking a Whole Systems Approach. This means applying systems thinking to better understand and address public health challenges.
There are three phases that can help stakeholders to take a Whole Systems Approach.
Phase 1: Collectively understanding the issue, context and system
Phase 2: Creating a collaborative plan for action
Phase 3: Learning and refining the plan throughout the process
