Priority setting for school nutrition research: developing a collaborative research agenda.

Priority setting for school nutrition research: developing a collaborative research agenda. Can J Public Health. 2020 Jun 11;: Authors: Vine MM, Leatherdale ST, Laxer RE Abstract Priority setting in health research can assist stakeholders to identify research and policies that have the greatest potential for benefits to public health. Priority setting has been utilized by researchers to identify barriers, facilitators, and recommendations for future public health research. This commentary describes how a priority-setting approach was used as part of a workshop activity on the school nutrition environment in Ontario, Canada, to facilitate brainstorming, sorting, and rating of concepts related to the school nutrition environment. This work demonstrates an interesting and concrete case of priority setting, of interest for various planning activities (both programming and research), particularly those around school-based healthy eating programs or a related research agenda.
