This exploratory study investigated the opportu...

Behaviour change is notoriously difficult to initiate and sustain, and the reasons why efforts to promote healthy behaviours fail are coming under increasing scrutiny. To be successful, health interventions should build on existing practices, skills... Read More about Culturally-compelling strategies for behaviour change.
