Outline of Research at the Start

災害多発地域であるアジア3カ国(日本、カンボジア、インドネシア)を対象に、学童期の子ども達が主体的に健康と地域とのつながりについて考えられるヘルスリテラシー(健康情報を理解して使う力)の向上を目指す。医学、栄養学および芸術を融合したクリエイティブ・ヘルス健康教育プログラムの実践研究であり、各国の地域性を重視する演劇や料理を取り入れた健康教育を子ども達や地域の協力者と共に立案・実施・評価する。最終成果物として、クリエイティブ・ヘルス健康教育の教材パッケージを作成する。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

The ultimate goal was to develop the capacity of children in three disaster-prone countries (Japan, Cambodia, and Indonesia) to think proactively about health and its connection to the local community. The participatory school health project, Creative Health, was designed with reference to the Creative Health initiative in the UK and with consideration for local culture and customs. 1. Evaluation of pilot projects in Japan found that children's attitudes toward their health and community became positive after participating in workshops involving drama, drawing, and cooking. 2. Teachers also found it facilitated fun creative learning for children and led to their sustainable development. 3. An international case comparison of COVID-19 prevention information development identified key points for developing culturally appropriate and accessible information. 4. Evaluation of trials in Indonesia suggested that the project improved psychological indices and cognitive functions in children.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

対象地域の教員や児童と活動することにより、各地域の言語や文化、習慣に適応した教材を作成した。最終年度は成果公表セミナーを開催し、モデルとなる共通教材パッケージを作成した。その他、カードゲームやコロナ禍に家庭で学べる教材作成を多言語で作成した。
