We have recently been funded by the UK Prevention Research Partnership (UKPRP) to develop a UK school food network. The overarching aim is to build a community working towards a more health-promoting food and nutrition system in UK schools (primary and secondary). Here we describe the current status of school food research, including a review of the literature supporting the health-promoting schools approach and outline the opportunities for intervention and innovation establishment of the network present. Key potential school food research themes are described, and their prioritisation within the network, as well as network activities that have been planned, with the ultimate ambition of reducing socio-economic diet-related inequalities, and, consequently, non-communicable disease risk.
我们最近获得了英国预防研究伙伴关系(UKPRP)的资助,以建立一个英国学校食品网络。总体目标是建立一个社区,努力在英国学校(小学和中学)建立一个更有利于促进健康的食品和营养体系。在这里,我们描述了学校食品研究的现状,包括对支持促进健康学校方法的文献的回顾,并概述了网络目前存在的干预和创新机会。描述了关键的潜在学校食品研究主题,并在网络内对其进行了优先排序,以及计划开展的网络活动,最终目标是减少社会经济与饮食相关的不平等现象,从而降低非传染性疾病的风险。
