Physical activity for health: framework

A framework for action to improve levels of physical activity at both national and local level which is firmly founded on evidence-based international guidance.


Bringing it together - Our new Outcomes Framework

Our existing Outcomes Framework was published in 2015 and was based on the best international guidance at the time, the Toronto Physical Activity Charter.[23] The Active Scotland Outcomes Framework provided a helpful visualisation of the importance of a whole system approach to physical activity and has been widely used.

However, as described above, international approaches have developed further since 2015, and we have a better understanding of the actions which we collectively need to take to improve levels of physical activity in Scotland. This document has described our new approach, and we have updated our Outcomes Framework as a result.
