Emelie Wiklund is a University Lecturer and PhD candidate in Sports Science at Malmö University’s Faculty of Learning and Society, Department of Sports Science. Trained as a physiotherapist, she researches physical activity prescription (PAPR/FaR) for children in schools, focusing on health equity and interdisciplinary collaboration. Her work involves qualitative analyses of stakeholder experiences to design sustainable health interventions.
