The Active Healthy Kids Scotland 2016 report card was produced by -

- The University of Strathclyde (Prof John J Reilly; Dr Adrienne Hughes; Avril Johnstone),

- The University of Aberdeen (Prof Geraldine McNeill).


The 2016 Report Card was produced with funding from Inspiring Scotland and The Robertson Trust. The Active Healthy Kids Scotland Report Cards are inspired by the Active Healthy Kids Canada Report Card, now the ParticipACTION Report Card (http://www.participaction.com/en-ca/thought-leadership/report-card) and the international network of around 40 countries with an Active Healthy Kids Report Card known as the Active Healthy Kids Global Alliance (www.activehealthykids.org).

The 2016 Active Healthy Kids Scotland Report Card is a ‘state of the nation’ report on the physical activity and health of Scottish children and adolescents.
