Collaboration

At the Centre for Research in Childhood Health (RICH), we work with a wide range of national and international partners, including research institutions, public authorities, schools, municipalities, and organizations.

Through these collaborations, we contribute to the development and conduct of high-quality research, with a particular focus on how physical activity, sleep, and screen use affect the health of children and adolescents.

Examples of collaborations:

• The Danish Health Authority: Systematic literature reviews focusing on screen use and physical activity among children.
  
  
• Screen-Free Time with Friends: A research project with municipalities and schools to develop and evaluate an intervention designed to increase schoolchildren’s participation in physically active communities.
  
  
• Generation Healthy Kids: A research collaboration with schools to evaluate a comprehensive intervention aimed at promoting health and well-being among younger schoolchildren.
  
  
• The Odense Child Cohort study: Objective measurement of physical activity and screen use.
  
  
• The European Youth Heart Study: An international research collaboration on physical activity and risk factors for cardiovascular disease among children and adolescents.
