Critically analyse the Heart Foundation Blueprint for an Act

Critically analyse the ‘Heart Foundation Blueprint for an Active Australia’ framework.

This analysis should include the following:

The population needs/issues in relation to chronic disease informing the development of the Blueprint.

How the Blueprints goals and aims address the pre-specified needs/issues.

Does the Blueprint meet criteria for successful policy and action plans on physical activity?

Solution

In this framework, Government and community actions to increase population levels of physical activity and reduce sedentary behaviour in Australia. So population needs/ issues are addressed only to an extent but not completely as it mainly focused on physical activity in relation to chronic diseases.
