Centre for Active Living and Learning
The Centre for Active Living and Learning (CALL) at the University of Newcastle is a multi-disciplinary research centre comprised of 20 researchers (and 45+ HDR students) with expertise in physical activity, fitness, sport, public health and mental health.
The focus of the Centre is on improving the health and wellbeing of the community through the promotion of active lifestyles that include increased physical activity and decreased time spent sitting and on screens. The Centre has four interrelated research themes that address the population settings the team works in including Clinical, Community, Families and Schools.
