Research recommendations coming out of this guidance
- How effective and cost effective are interventions which use either a ‘total population’ or ‘high-risk population’ approach to preventing type 2 diabetes among people from black and minority ethnic or lower socioeconomic groups?
- What are the most effective and cost effective ways of developing, implementing and assessing tailored and culturally appropriate community-level interventions to prevent type 2 diabetes among people at high risk? This includes people from a range of black and minority ethnic groups and those from lower socioeconomic communities.
- Which participatory approaches are most effective and cost effective among populations at higher risk of type 2 diabetes? This should consider the awareness, knowledge, understanding and skills of the providers of interventions for people at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes?
- How do socioeconomic, environmental, biological and psychosocial factors determine diet and physical activity behaviours and how do they contribute to differences in the risk of developing type 2 diabetes?
- How do financial factors (including incentives, pricing and taxation of food and incentives, and pricing for physical activity opportunities) affect food and physical activity choices?
