• Senior Advisor in Public Health

  • Nov 2015 - Feb 2023

  I work as a Senior Advisor Public Health in the region of Östergötland. My focus both as a researcher and as a Senior Advisor in public health is the promotion of physical activity, with a major focus on sustainable social development and on strategic development within the system. I have a broad background in public organizations and many years in the research field. My research mainly involves intervention projects but always includes implementation in a real-world setting after the research project is finished. Just as the WHO in their vision for a more active world emphasize social norms and attitudes as well as the creation of active systems, including strengthened leadership, governance and multisectoral partnerships, we launched our strategy, to involve different stakeholders in society, some years ago. I am currently responsible for our regional strategy for promoting physical activity, 2016–2020 and 2020-2025. Ongoing work within our regional strategy involves interaction, networking and coordination of activities together with other stakeholder in society. Our ambition is to think in new ways, to be innovative and to find new solutions to old problems and to collaborate to reach our goal of a more physically active population. Therefore, among other things, we have created an informative website where we disseminate facts and knowledge, but above all, best practices and examples of projects that are under way from which others can learn and become involved in. The website is in Swedish and you can find it on www.sattostergotlandirorelse.nu. Show less
