PGR Workshop - From Research to Practice: Designing and Scaling Lifestyle Medicine Interventions..

IAS Residential Fellow Dr Ojwang Alice Achieng delivers a workshop for Postgraduate Researchers (PGRs), fully titled "From Research to Practice: Designing and Scaling Lifestyle Medicine Interventions in Low-Resource Settings" - 

This interactive workshop equips postgraduate researchers with practical skills to design interdisciplinary lifestyle medicine research and translate findings into real-world interventions. Using the Diabesity Total Lifestyle Change (DTLC) program as a case study, the session covers intervention design, behaviour change strategies, success stories, lessons learned, and implementation challenges specific to low-resource settings. Participants will work in small groups to adapt one behaviour change technique from the DTLC program to a hypothetical low-resource context of their choice, using a provided template. By the end of the session, each group will produce a one-page implementation logic model — a tangible output they can apply to their own research.

Arrivals from 1:45 pm for a 2:00 pm start.
