Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The aim of the study is to test a series of developed effective interventions targeting Danes going on vacation to sunny destinations to decrease sunburn by increasing use of shade, hats, protective clothing, and sunscreen to prevent skin cancer in the Danish population. It has been estimated that up to 90 % of all skin cancers could be avoided by behavioral changes. One of the main sources of UVR exposure in the Danish population is vacations to destinations with high UV index (UVI).
