Understanding Contextual Determinants for Preventing Health Risks and Promoting Health Promotion – Alcohol Misuse, Sexual Violence and Space-Related Barriers.

There are three applied and impactful strands of my research which will be related to this policy-related funding opportunity. The first strand focuses on constructing healthy contexts and preventing alcohol misuse within the nightlife economy, with interventions around alcohol-free spaces. The second strand highlights the importance of on-campus spaces for preventing sexual violence and interventions for creating safe campus communities. The third strand focuses on community space-related barriers, providing key recommendations for ageing populations access enablers. All of this work builds on the University’s continued vision to do purposeful and impactful research, while linking to the priorities outlined in the University’s Research Plan for 2020-2025.
