Healthy Active Living and Obesity

The HALO group’s research is focused on the development and evaluation of current and future prevention, management and treatment options for physical activity, sedentary behaviour and obesity in childhood. Researchers are working to identify the environmental, behavioural, psychological and biological predictors of obesity and physical (in)activity, as well as their interactions, enablers and inhibitors. The group is also working to develop and disseminate innovative strategies to prevent, manage and treat childhood obesity and to promote healthy body weights, physical activity, and diet quality. l
