In June, 2004, a comprehensive documentation of ParticipACTION’s
history, strategies and, most important, relevant learnings for
future health and physical activity promotion leaders, was published
as a special supplement to the Canadian Journal of Public Health.
Under the leadership of Peggy Edwards, a team of health communication
and research specialists donated their time and talent to produce
the content.
Specialists from the Canadian Public Health Association assisted
with the attractive design and printing requirements.
Funding for this initiative was personally donated by over sixty
“friends of ParticipACTION”, plus a number of corporations
and organizations.
All of these contributors felt strongly that the valuable learnings
and successful strategies pioneered by ParticipACTION needed to
be available for the benefit of future health and physical activity
promotion leaders – nationally and internationally. In so
doing, ParticipACTION “lives on.”
ParticipACTION is indebted to the Canadian Public Health Association,
a valued partner throughout its existence.
