The Pro Children intervention used the Intervention Mapping protocol to create a school-based program promoting fruit and vegetable intake in children aged 10–13. This comprehensive, culturally sensitive approach involved schools, families, and communities.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Promotion
  • Behavioral Science

Background:

  • Theory-based planning is crucial for effective fruit and vegetable promotion interventions.
  • The Intervention Mapping (IM) protocol provides a structured framework for developing such interventions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the application of the IM protocol in developing the Pro Children intervention.
  • To promote fruit and vegetable consumption among 10- to 13-year-old schoolchildren.

Main Methods:

  • A needs assessment informed the identification of performance objectives and determinants.
  • Learning and change objectives were developed by crossing objectives with determinants.
  • Culturally relevant interventions were designed, implemented, and evaluated across three European countries.

Conclusions:

  • The Pro Children intervention successfully utilized the IM protocol for comprehensive program development.
  • The resulting program was school-based, culturally sensitive, and locally relevant for promoting fruit and vegetable intake.
