Dr. Paul Chadwick is an Associate
Professor and Deputy Director of the UCL Centre for Behaviour Change where he
works on the development of interdisciplinary approaches to research and
practice in behaviour change. Paul has been at the forefront of developing,
evaluating and disseminating evidence-based approaches to obesity and diabetes
management in the UK and internationally and works on several
large-scale trials of behaviour change interventions funded by the CDC and NIHR.
More recently he has been developing methods to integrate systems and behaviour
change theory and testing their application to transform complex systems such
as those involved in energy, biodiversity, food and equality for individuals of
Black and Minority Ethnicities. In 2019 Dr Chadwick was commissioned by the
Welsh Government to use the Behavioural Systems Mapping methodology to develop
its decarbonisation strategy for Welsh Homes, and has applied the methodology
to a range of health, well-being and sustainability issues including; reducing
sexual harassment in academia and developing whole systems approaches to
physical activity in local government.
