Week 4
Beach activities continues with targeting elderly. We done consultations about dehydration, role of water in the diet, physical activities for elderly etc. We walked together with elderly and measured steps with pedometer, approximately 1000 steps per person, furthermore we explained the importance of physical activities for elderly and recommendations on daily bases.
We hand-out the flyers about healthy snacks, antioxidants and water role in the diet, filled questionnaires from elderly about their eating habits.
Afterwords, we were assigned to filled out Communication Survey for Mun-Si, which were designed from EPODE network. It was challenging to answer all those questions because some of them were very specific regards to communication tools which Mun-Si use in their health promotion activities. The questions were defined in 3 fields:
Communication at a central level
Communication at a local level
External communication at a central and local level.
The information generated by this survey will be reported in a position paper on Communication Best Practices in Community-Based Obesity Prevention Programmes.
