Sedentary/passive behavior has increased the risk of non-communicable disease, which incites the need to promote an active lifestyle through outdoor physical activities. However, green open space (GOS) amount and design that focus as health promoter have not yet been sufficient. Therefore, design evaluation is conducted to acknowledge recent issues and potential solutions as design considerations for next GOS that focuses on health. Evaluation of GOS design quality uses design indicators that are extracted from Salutogenic Five Vital Signs to identify and assess design quality at selected GOS as a case study.  The data for this study is gathered through site surveys, two months observations, and user interviews: 25 visitors, two staff, and three entrepreneurs. Evaluation at selected GOS highlights the importance of forest setting as major attractions because it provides comfortable shades of trees. Also, GOS should be located at a strategic point to be easily accessed by different kind of transportation modes and routes. Moreover, legibility is achieved highly by movement network: path and clear main entrance, and permeability are achieved through the selection of more than five meters height of trees that clear the visual obstacles, clear spots of activities (pods), and transparent fences.EVALUASI RUANG TERBUKA HIJAU SEBAGAI PROMOTOR KESEHATAN DENGAN PENDEKATAN SALUTOGENIC: TAMAN KOTA BSD I SEBAGAI STUDI KASUSPerilaku sedentary/pasif telah meningkatkan resiko terkena non-communicable disease yang menimbulkan munculnya kebutuhan untuk mendorong aktivitas fisik aktif yang dilakukan di ruang terbuka. Akan tetapi, kuantitas ruang terbuka hijau (RTH) belum memenuhi proporsi minimum 30% dari total luas area dan kualitas desain RTH sebagai promotor aktivitas fisik aktif (kesehatan) belum memiliki referensi desain. Oleh karena itu, evaluasi desain dilakukan untuk mengetahui permasalahan, potensi solusi, dan strategi yang terdapat pada RTH sekarang ini sebagai panduan rancang yang mendorong kegiatan fisik aktif. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode kualitatif yang dilakukan melalui empat tahap, yaitu: 1. studi pustaka mengenai lima tanda vital salutogenic (diversity, vitality, nature, authenticity, dan legacy) untuk mengidentifikasi parameter evaluasi (kriteria perancangan dan indikator desain), 2. pemilihan objek studi, 3. pengumpulan data melalui survey, observasi dan wawancara, dan 4. identifikasi dan evaluasi kualitas desain RTH. Objek studi terpilih merupakan RTH yang berpotensi memenuhi lima tanda vital salutogenic, yaitu Taman Kota BSD I (TK I), Tangerang Selatan. Hasil evaluasi RTH adalah pentingnya mengintegrasikan unsur alam sebagai setting RTH karena karakteristiknya yang spesifik menjadi daya tarik utama untuk beraktivitas aktif. Selain itu, RTH perlu menyediakan fasilitas lengkap dan pemeliharaannya untuk seluruh kategori usia dan skala aktivitas dari personal hingga komunitas. Secara keseluruhan, RTH perlu mengembangkan program dan strategi implementasi untuk mengembangkan aktivitas edukasi dan preservasi yang melibatkan komunitas secara aktif.

Among ways to keep up with healthy lifestyle include physical activities. Recent statistics by the Ministry of Health (2016) indicated a drastic increase in the prevalence of non-communicable disease from 1990 to 2016 and the number is expected to increase or remain high. In response to the issue, the Eleventh Malaysia Plan 2016-2020 was formulated to improve Malaysians’ wellbeing by providing ample open spaces to encourage an active lifestyle. This paper aims to investigate the association of proximity to neighbourhood park and its level of utilisation. 680 respondents were involved in the questionnaire survey conducted at 7 selected neighbourhood parks. The output of the Pearson Correlation evinced that proximity to neeighborhood parks was highly associated to the level of park utilisation. There was a strong and positive relationships between (i) park distance and numbers of visitations (r = 0.841,n = 680,p = 0.000< 0.01), (ii) park distance and length of stay (r = 0.803, n = 680, p = 0.000< 0.01), and (iii) number of visitations and length of stay (r = 0.644, n = 680,p = 0.000< 0.01). The results also indicated that that the longer the distance of the park from home, the longer the time spent at the park. Whereas, the shorter the distance of the park from home, the higher the utilisation of the park.

Adolescents are a potential segment of society to be involved in health programs. However, adolescent involvement in community-based health programs is limited, especially for non-communicable diseases. This study explores adolescents’ participation in community-based non-communicable disease programs in a rural area of Indonesia, and factors that enable or hinder their engagement. This was a qualitative case study using the data of the Hypertension Responsive Village Movement (HRVM) Program, a community empowerment program for hypertension control in Sleman Regency, Yogyakarta. Participants consisted of adolescents aged 12 to 25 years old who are involved in HRVM. The data analyzed consisted of attendance lists and meeting/activity minutes of 6 adolescents’ programs, transcripts of interviews with 2 community leaders (village head and youth organization leader), resume of a group discussion with adolescents’ representatives, video records of adolescent programs activities and field notes. Thematic data analysis was conducted to describe adolescents’ participation, as well as the barriers and enabling factors. Descriptive analysis of attendance lists and meeting/activity minutes was developed to describe the retention rate of adolescents in the program. Adolescents’ form of participation ranged from being an acceptor to initiator. In the beginning of the program, 20 adolescents participated. However, by the end of the program, only 8 (40%) adolescents remained. Enabling factors for engagement were the community leaders’ supports, the adjustment of program strategies and deliveries with adolescence needs and the availability of social capital in the form of youth organizations. The barriers were adolescents’ limited time and limited adolescents’ participation in youth organization. In conclusion, engaging adolescents in community-based programs is possible even though it provides some challenges because of the limited time adolescents spend in their community. Strengthening stakeholders’ support, adjusting program strategies and deliveries with target characteristics and utilizing social capital are important to engage adolescents in community-based programs.

AbstractObjective:To describe the development of Fiji’s fruit and vegetable fiscal policies between 2010 and 2014 and explore the impact they have had on import volumes.Design:Qualitative case study and in-depth analysis of policy process. Policy impact was assessed using publicly available import volume data and prices of food products.Setting:Fiji.Participants:Senior government policy makers, non-communicable disease officers from the Ministry of Health and Medical Services (MoHMS) and supermarket managers.Results:In 2011, the Fijian Government introduced an import excise of 10 % on vegetables and reduced the import fiscal duty on fruit that was also grown in Fiji by 10 %. The import tax on vegetables was removed in 2012 in response to a MoHMS request. Policy makers from several sectors supported the MoHMS request, recognized their leadership and acknowledged the importance of collaboration in achieving the removal of the excise. Tariff reductions appear to have contributed to increases in the volume of vegetables (varieties not grown in Fiji) and fruit (varieties grown in Fiji) imported, but it is not clear if this increased population consumption.Conclusions:Reductions in import duties appear to have contributed to increases in volumes of vegetables and fruit imported into Fiji. This case study has demonstrated that governments can use fiscal policy to meet the needs of a range of sectors including health, agriculture and tourism.
