Active Play for All Children: Building Evidence and Advancing a Culture of Health

The Physical Activity Research Center (PARC) is a collaboration of faculty from six leading universities —UC San Diego, Georgia Institute of Technology, Johns Hopkins University, North Carolina State University, Baylor University, and San Diego State University— with backgrounds in public health, city planning, behavioral science, and parks and recreation. We aim to build the evidence base for policy changes that will help make physical activity an everyday experience for all children. PARC has conducted four studies regarding youth physical activity and engagement in diverse community settings.

In this Web Forum we will hear from our investigators on the current state of youth physical activity including current trends, park usage, youth empowerment, and temporary play activations all with a stated focus on health equity. Panelists will share results of each study as well as vital crossover implications and next steps.
