Understanding the interactions between the psychosocial factors, the environment, food patterns and physical activity in schools of Cuenca
I was part of the Biosciences Department conducting research for a project that sought to understand the interactions between the psychosocial factors, the environment, food patterns and physical activity in schools of Cuenca. My role involved the analysis of 32 focus groups to report sustainable practices, food intake, physical activity patterns, among others. The people involved in this study were parents, children and teachers from 32 schools of the Andes and Amazonic region of Ecuador.
