Popis: | Issue addressed: We report on a process evaluation of a project that aimed to replace energy-dense, nutrient-poor (EDNP) items at a community swimming pool kiosk. The analytic framework was the Analysis Grid for Environments Linked to Obesity (ANGELO). To contribute to health promotion practice in recreational settings, the process evaluation sought to determine the extent to which project 'controversies' modified project objectives and strategies. Methods: The case study method captured the project narrative. The primary data were interviews with key project participants, supplemented with project records and media articles. These were analysed thematically. Results: The socio-cultural and political environments, particularly the capacity to exercise choice in relation to ENDP products, had considerable influence on the project. In the face of two controversies - 'I thought everyone was signed up to it' and 'We can't deny the kiddies their ice-cream' - it was necessary for the project partners to modify the objectives and strategies and substantially change the target. Conclusions: The setting is highly responsive to both the micro and macro socio-cultural and political aspects of the environment. |
