IMPALA - Improving Infrastructures for Leisure-Time Physical Activity in the Local Arena

Good Practice in Europe

A number of European projects have dealt with issues of urban planning, transportation, and physical activity behaviour. None of the existing networks and projects, however, has pursued the harmonisation of efforts for the development of sports facilities and recreational areas for physical activity.

General Objective

The EU-sponsored IMPALA project aims to identify, implement, and disseminate good practice in the planning, financing, building, and managing of local infrastructures for leisure- time physical activity. IMPALA will assist in concerting efforts for the development of local infrastructures for leisure- time physical activity in EU member states, thus helping to reduce inequalities in access to infrastructures for leisure-time physical activity within and across nations.

Specific Objectives

To pursue the specific objectives of IMPALA, the following methods will be utilized:

(1)Assessing national policies: IMPALA will conduct qualitative interviews with national experts and policymakers who are familiar with existing regulatory laws and guidelines for the development of infrastructures for leisure-time physical activity.
(2)Assessing national mechanisms: IMPALA partners will analyse existing documents about specific procedures and instruments utilized in the development of infrastructures for leisure-time physical activity in every nation.
(3)Agreeing on good practice: Partners will agree on a set of quality criteria for policies and mechanisms for the development of infrastructures for leisure-time physical activity. These criteria will be summarised in a checklist. Associated partners will evaluate existing policies and mechanisms in their nation against the checklist of good practice criteria.
(4)Dissemination and implementation of good practice: IMPALA partners will present results of the project at a conference with European experts and policy-makers. Additionally, on the national levels, partners will invite relevant experts and policy- makers to workshop meetings to present and discuss results of the project and develop ideas about means for their implementation.
