The economics of physical activity in low-income and middle-income countries: protocol for a systematic review.

Priyanga Diloshini Ranasinghe | Subhash Pokhrel | Nana Kwame Anokye
BMJ open | 2019

Evidence on the economic costs of physical inactivity and the cost-effectiveness of physical activity interventions in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) is sparse, and fragmented where they are available. This is the first review aimed to summarise available evidence on economics of physical activity in LMICs, identify potential target variables for policy, and identify and report gaps in the current knowledge on economics of physical activity in LMICs.
