Definitely a privileged opportunity to learn from and collaborate with amazing stakeholders from different sectors. Please check out our latest publication to see more.
Last year we hosted our systems mapping workshop. Researchers & stakeholders from different disciplines/sectors got together to collectively reflect on the systems of #PhysicalActivity in NSW. Paper out @JPAHjournal : journals.humankinetics.com/v… So much learning in this process❀️!

Q: Do we experience more #loneliness after #retirement? A: hmmm...It depends...likely to differ across cultures. Glad to see @NetaHaGani @pjclare @SusanLuo1 's new work out in @JECH_BMJ exploring this question. shorturl.at/n9TbU
