Educators’ barriers and facilitators to physical activity policy implementation in the childcare setting: Qualitative findings from the Play Active project

Description:

Purpose: We explored childcare educators’ perceived barriers and facilitators to policy implementation in order to inform the development and implementation of an early childhood education and care (ECEC) specific physical activity policy. This study was part of the Play Active (2019-2023) project which aimed to develop, implement and evaluate evidence-based physical activity policy to improve physical activity levels in children attending ECEC.
