WHO STEPwise approach to chronic disease surveillance
Providing evidence in an integrated way
Where it began…
• Partners came together to develop an integrated knowledge system to inform local planning based on evidence (MIKS)
• Common mandate for prevention of chronic diseases: IRHA, CCS, CCMB, H&SF, Alliance
• Partners in Planning for Healthy Living
• SNOWMAN – conceptual framework
Becoming Partners in Planning for Healthy Living
• Formalized our partnerships• NGOs, RHAs, MECY, HCMO, MHHL, HIC,
PHAC, etc.• Expanding is based on common mandates• Shared values and principles• Ongoing at all levels – school, community,
region and provincial
Our Vision:
To build…• Prevention capacity in Manitoba• Province-wide chronic disease risk factor
surveillance system that is integrated with community planning and best practices
• A sustainable system which fits into the planning cycles at all levels
Partners in Planning
for Healthy Living

Manitoba Risk Factor Surveillance
The goal is to develop an integrated system of ongoing risk factor surveillance in MB at the community level:
• Produces practice-based learning• Is consistent and sustainable across province• Is based on evidence• Builds capacity to plan at all levels (community,
school, region, province)• Allows us to ‘learn as we go’
Youth Health Survey: What Were Our Successes??
1. Created a Provincial RFS System• Census of grades 9 to 12 in all schools (some schools
6 to 8)• Census chosen to provide local-level data for local
planning• Avoids study design & weighting issues• Straight-forward & easy to manage • Economies of scale (printing surveys, report
production, common health promotion messages)
Youth Health Survey: What Did We Do?
2. Integrated into Planning Cycles
• Chronic Disease Prevention Initiative• Community Health Assessment• Regional Health Plans• Baseline for Physical Education/Health Education
Policy implementation (MB Education and HCMO)
Strategic Planning
Youth Health Survey: What Did We Do?
3. Found Funding• CancerCare MB Foundation• Heart & Stroke Foundation
of MB• Public Health Agency of
Canada• Chronic Disease Prevention
Initiative MH• Canadian Partnership
Against Cancer• Coalitions Linking Action in
Science and Prev’n• Canadian Institutes of
Health Research
Funding and Collaboration
What We Learned from YHS
Partnerships• 46,919 students participated
in the survey (or approximately 50,000)
• Over 400 schools; 265 of these schools included grade 9-12
• All 11 Manitoba Regional Health Authorities participated
• Reports at School, School Division, Regional, and Provincial levels
What we Learned from YHS
Multi-Level Leadership
• Change in expectations for leadership –regional, school division, NGO, community, provincial and others could provide leadership
• Change in expectations for resources – in-kind and financial from regions, NGOs, school divisions and other government departments
Who to Thank?
The RHAs…• For leadership• For staff time and energy to collect data, forge
new relationships, and extend the reach of their RHA activities
• For supporting staff to take part in PPHL planning, activities, and working groups
• For collaborating with other RHAs, NGOs and government departments to produce YHS Provincial Report and RFS System
Moving Towards ARFS
Moving Towards ARFS
• Continue to share the lessons learned and best practices from the YHS
• RHAs continue to be involved, and assume a leadership role in collecting, disseminating and using the data
• Take what we’ve learned about evidence-based practice, communicating and mobilizing, collaboration and partnerships, and apply it to Adult RFS
• Plan collection of Adult RFS data beginning with Jan 2011 Symposium
Acknowledge Changing Roles
• RHAs own their data, together decide how to collect and share
• Governments benefit from regional leadership, concentrate on infra-structure to support
• Lack of resources not always a barrier – i.e. Education policy in place, resources will come
What Do We Need to Conduct ARFS ?
• Champions• Funding• A commitment to the values and principles
of Partners in Planning for Healthy Living
Conclusions
• On-going surveillance allows for future tool development, a coordinated approach and shared experience for all involved
• Supporting research- validation of physical activity, policy, etc.
• Challenge to develop shared meaning, link surveillance to planning, interventions, and further evaluation…
To think and act as a system
