The role of the neighbourhood built environment on physical activity and sedentary behaviour among youth and adults

通过改善公园来改善建筑环境是一种潜在的可持续方式，可以增加人口的体育活动水平。这项研究的目的是研究公园的特点如何增加使用率，为生活在弱势社区的家庭提供更多的体育活动机会，减少久坐不动的行为。这项研究将为政策制定者提供证据，并将帮助规划者设计促进公园内使用和活动的公园。

Modifying the built environment by improving parks is potentially a sustainable way to increase population level physical activity. This research aims to examine how features of parks may increase usage, provide greater opportunities for physical activity, and decrease sedentary behaviours among families primarily living in disadvantaged neighbourhoods. This research will provide evidence for policy makers and will assist planners to design parks that promote use and activity within parks.
