MEGAN DEVRIES is an academic who published a paper in 2022 entitled Rethinking walkability and developing a conceptual definition of active living environments to guide. MEGAN DEVRIES published this work as part of a team: Tobin, Melissa. Here is a description of this work: Bac,,ground Walkability is a popular term used to describe aspects of the built and social environment that have important population-level impacts on physical activity, energy balance, and health. Although the term is widely used by researchers, practitioners, and the general public, and multiple operational definitions and walkability measurement tools exist, there are is no agreed-upon conceptual definition of walkability. Method To address this gap, researchers from Memorial University of Newfoundland hosted â€oeThe Future of Walkability Measures Workshop†in association with researchers from the Canadian Urban Environmental Health Research Consortium (CANUE) in November 2017. During the workshop, trainees, researchers, and practitioners worked together in small groups to iteratively develop and reach consensus about a conceptual definit.
