GAC-PAQ activities

Global Adolescent and Child Physical Activity Questionnaire (GAC-PAQ) is a multi-country collaborative research project that aims to develop and validate app-based physical questionnaires for adolescents and children of 8-17 years, including 14 countries (low-, middle- and high-income) from six habitable continents.

The countries include Canada, Mexico, Colombia, Brazil, Sweden, Spain, Malawi, Nigeria, Nepal, India, China, Thailand, the United Arab Emirates and New Zealand.

Currently, we are pilot-testing the app-based GAC-PAQ questionnaire globally including Nepal. Data for the main study will be collected from the Dolkha, Syangja, Rupandehi, and Bardiya districts of Nepal.
