4 Legend The social ecological theory of health promotion has five domains and provides a framework to guide planning. According to the theory, work needs to occur in all five domains to have an impact on an issue: At the individual level, people need to be able to have the right information to make an informed choice. The interpersonal level includes the habits and beliefs of family, peers and friends. The organizational level includes schools (training of staff), and organizations collaborating. The community level includes social norms, safety, culture, etc. The public policy level deals with policies at the municipal, regional, and provincial levels. *** A program is a well-organized series of activities designed to facilitate change in a well-defined target group. A channel refers to the sites in which programs are delivered to the target group. A target group is the population, clients, or subjects intended to be identified and served by the program. An outcome is a brief statement specifying the desired impact, or effect, of a health promotion program (how much of what should happen to whom by when). The research indicators are variables that can be measured in some way. For the purposes of program planning and evaluation, indicators are used as benchmarks, or proxy measures, to assess the extent to which objectives have been met. The data sources are the tools that provide measurable data about the indicator selected for an outcome. Priority #1: Walkability and Bikeability Communities
