Culture, Sport and Wellbeing Evidence Review: Social Diversity and Context Matters

该项目旨在了解不同文化和体育活动的主观幸福感（SWB）益处，以及它们如何在不同群体和用户社区之间分布，包括：男性和女性，不同的社会经济群体，不同的种族和少数群体;一系列年龄组;和残疾人。我们亦希望确保有关主观幸福感的研究结果能最有效地结合起来，为文化和体育活动的政策和实施提供有意义的信息。主观幸福感的定义在整个项目中，我们将使用国家统计局对SWB的定义，该定义从生活满意度，幸福和担忧的经历以及生活中有价值的事情等方面监测SWB。项目的合作方式为了开展我们的项目，来自布鲁内尔大学伦敦、伦敦经济学院和布莱顿大学的一组研究人员将与5个利益相关者团体密切合作：政策制定者、专员、服务提供者、领导者和公众，他们有兴趣寻找、推广和分享证据，以最大限度地发挥文化和体育的潜力，提高主观幸福感。我们将在项目的前6个月举办一系列研讨会，利益相关者将有机会与研究人员讨论SWB与文化和体育的相关性，并商定可以通过系统搜索一系列文献来源来回答的关键主题和问题。在项目的剩余部分，研究人员将确定和评估所建议的专题的证据，并通过一系列的思想交流研讨会向利益攸关方群体报告。我们将侧重于确保向相关群体提供和传播最佳证据，以便他们能够利用这些证据为文化和体育活动的政策和实施提供信息。我们的项目得到了文化和体育部门多个利益相关者的支持。我们认识到，在支持此类项目方面，利益相关者面临着时间和人力方面的挑战，因此我们将努力使用一系列在线和虚拟沟通方法以及面对面的方式。项目方法我们将使用各种既定的方法，系统地识别和评估不同用户群体的文化，体育和福祉的现有证据。我们将从不同来源收集和审查一系列类型的证据，包括已发表的学术文献，报告和调查。我们可以提供简短的书面证据概述、带有统计审查的较长报告以及针对不同利益相关者群体的目标和要求量身定制的成本信息评估。在我们的项目中，我们强调研究证据对文化，体育和福利政策和实践的影响最大，受研究影响的人需要参与审查，综合和分享证据的工作。我们将在整个项目中使用各种方法，包括面对面的讨论组，项目网站和twitter feed，以及在线焦点小组，将我们的发现传达给利益相关者。我们将提供一个项目结束的“调查结果”会议，包括我们的利益相关者代表的受众的多样性。我们还将在当地的文化和体育场所（包括图书馆，博物馆和体育设施）举办3次公开展览。为了确保我们的调查结果传达给英国观众，我们还将在爱丁堡、卡迪夫和贝尔法斯特举行一系列全国论坛。

Project aimsThis project aims to find out about the subjective wellbeing (SWB) benefits of different culture and sport practices and how they are distributed between different groups and user communities including: males and females, different socioeconomic groups, diverse ethnic and minority groups; a range of age groups; and people with disabilities. We also wish to ensure that our findings on SWB can be most effectively combined to meaningfully inform policy about, and delivery of culture and sport activities. Definition of subjective wellbeingThroughout our project we will use the Office of National Statistics definition of SWB which monitors SWB in terms of life satisfaction, experiences of happiness and worry, and worthwhile things in life. Collaborative approach to the projectTo conduct our project, a group of researchers from Brunel University London, the London School of Economics and the University of Brighton will work closely with 5 stakeholder groups; policy makers, commissioners, service deliverers, leaders and the public who are interested in finding, promoting and sharing the evidence to maximise the potential of culture and sport to enhance SWB. We will run a series of workshops in the first 6 months of the project where stakeholders will have the opportunity to discuss with researchers the relevance of SWB to culture and sport and to agree key topics and questions which can be answered using systematic searches of a range of literature sources. In the remainder of the project the researchers will identify and assess the evidence for the topics suggested and report to stakeholder groups through a series of ideas exchange workshops. We will focus on ensuring that the best evidence is presented and disseminated to relevant groups so that they can use it to inform policy on and delivery of cultural and sporting practices. We have support for our project from several stakeholders in the culture and sport sectors. We recognise that stakeholders have time and workforce challenges in supporting this kind of project and so we will work to use a range of on-line and virtual methods of communication as well as face-to-face approaches.Project methodsWe will use a variety of established methods for systematically identifying and evaluating existing evidence on culture, sport and wellbeing for different user groups. We will collect and review a range of types of evidence from different sources including the published academic literature, reports and surveys. We can provide short written overviews of evidence, longer reports with statistical reviews, and evaluation of cost information tailored to the objectives and requirements of different stakeholder groups. Communicating the findings of our projectIn our project we emphasise that for research evidence to have the most impact on culture, sport and wellbeing policy and practice, the people affected by the research need to be involved in work that reviews, synthesises and shares that evidence. We will communicate our findings to stakeholders throughout our project using employing a variety of methods including face-to-face discussion groups, a project website and twitter feed, and on-line focus groups. We will deliver an end of project 'findings' conference to include the diversity of audiences that our stakeholders represent. We will also deliver 3 public exhibitions of our findings at local cultural and sporting venues (including libraries, museums and sport facilities. To ensure that our findings are communicated to a UK audience we will also hold a series of national forums in Edinburgh, Cardiff and Belfast.
