| Brief Description | The Tröndelag Model of Public Health Work was develop in a 4 year multi-sectorial innovation and research project, that sought to develop, test and evaluate new methods and models for the systematic translation of knowledge to complex public health interventions, as well as translating knowledge from interventions back to research and later public health policy development. Data from a mixed method research design along with multi-sectorial experiences, knowledge from citizens, politicians, county and local municipalities’ governments, NGOs, private sector and the local municipalities, as well as international and national public health and health promotion research, served as basis for the development of The Tröndelag Model of Public Health Work (ref). The model offers new forms of knowledge sharing and collaboration in the field of public health regionally and locally as well as new methods for converting knowledge into practice. |
