Commercial determinants and influences on physical activity and sport: are they the same as other commercial determinants of health?

Session details: This lecture and workshop will explore the emerging field of commercial influences on physical activity and sport, examining the role that commercial actors play in participation, the environment and policy, and considering whether these influences differ from, or align with, other commercial determinants of health. The workshop is intended primarily for those with an interest in research and practice, especially in relation to physical activity, sport and public health.
About the speaker: Professor Bauman is an Adjunct Professor of Physical Activity for Health at the University of Limerick. We are delighted to welcome this internationally recognised public health researcher with over 40 years' experience in prevention, health promotion and physical activity research. Adrian has worked extensively with policymakers and researchers across the globe and is currently leading work to better understand the commercial influences on physical activity and sport.
