            Faculty: FTVS
            Project leader: Buriánková, Jitka

            The project aims to analyse factors influencing patient behaviour regarding participation 
            screenings across different countries. The research will focus on what motivates patients 
            ups with general practitioners and the barriers that discourage participation. Cultural, e

            and psychological factors will be examined to better understand the decision-making proces
            preventive health care.


            The project builds on collaboration established through the jointly organised conference “
            City. Exploring Urban Health from a Social Science Perspective” in 2024. The University of

            University of Milan and Charles University will jointly develop a standardised questionnai
            comparable data from their respective countries. This approach will integrate diverse rese
            and contribute to embedding urban health in the European context of the partner universiti


            Planned activities include joint meetings to align research objectives, pilot testing of t
            independent data collection, analysis of results and preparation of a joint scholarly publ

            partners will also record a podcast for students and organise an open lecture to share res
            collaboration is designed to strengthen interdisciplinary links, support long-term coopera
            science research and create a foundation for future joint funding applications, including 

            Horizon Europe opportunities.
