Lifestyle, Health and Youth Empowerment Programme: encouraging Pasifika youth to tackle the root causes of obesity
The overall objective of the study is:
To develop the capacity of young Pasifika people using principles of the social change model. Empowerment programmes aim to involve young people as partners in the decision-making process of a particular intervention. We will use the social change model as a framework to develop their public health skills and knowledge working towards linking individual empowerment to community organising.
