Secondary school represents the final opportunity to influence individuals as they develop adult lifestyle behaviours and enter a transitional period in their lives. Considering the increased prevalence of lifestyle diseases among Australian adults and increases in the prevalence of obesity among young Australians, targeting health-promoting behaviours in adolescents is clearly a national priority. Furthermore, rates of obesity are much higher in economically disadvantaged areas, with girls more susceptible to the SES disadvantages. This project has the potential to develop a knowledge base and improve the health behaviours of current and future Australians most at risk for the development of lifestyle diseases.

中学是影响个人的最后机会，因为他们发展成人的生活方式行为，并进入他们生活的过渡时期。考虑到澳大利亚成年人中生活方式疾病的流行率上升，以及澳大利亚年轻人中肥胖症的流行率上升，针对青少年的健康促进行为显然是一个国家优先事项。此外，在经济落后地区，肥胖率更高，女孩更容易受到社会经济地位不利因素的影响。该项目有可能发展一个知识库，并改善目前和未来最有可能患上生活方式疾病的澳大利亚人的健康行为。
