Brief description Investigating the effects and maximising the benefits of increased physical activity and reduced sedentary behaviour on wellbeing in youth. Lack of physical activity and the time that young people spend sedentary and alone staring into television and computer screens, are major public health issues. This project aims to explore how changes in physical activity and sedentary behaviour might influence health and wellbeing in young Australians. It will also involve the evaluation of an innovative school-based intervention targeting these outcomes. This project has the potential to bring physical and mental health benefits to current and future Australians.
