Benefits of #physicalactivity go far beyond staying healthy.

When 10-year-old Sasha arrived in #Poland from #Ukraine she didn’t speak Polish. Pairing up with other pupils in her #volleyball team has helped her learn the language and make friends.

🏃‍♂️💪❤️ There are many benefits of making #PhysicalActivity part of our everyday life – from reducing #cancer and #obesity risks to improving grades at school. But people need better #policies to create such an environment!

New WHO #EU database shows how👉 https://t.co/76Yi01b1sm

[WHO/Europe @WHO_Europe]

To #beatNCDs and address #ClimateChange at the same time, we need to implement policies that:

🚴‍♂️Support walking and cycling
🥗Promote sustainable food systems
🚭Reduce tobacco and alcohol consumption
🌳Reduce air pollution

One of the key messages at #ISPAH2022 is that we further need to close the gap between science, policy and practice. You are welcome in Leuven (Belgium) 11-13 Sept for HEPA Europe 2023 focusing on ‘Implementing Health-Enhancing Physical Activity research’ @WHO_Europe @hepaeurope

[Andreas Holtermann @profHoltermann]

What is & WHAT IS NOT - health enhancing physical activity, and how to target & implement it for the less priviliged? Thanks @hepaeurope for giving me the oppertunity to give keynote & for wonderful discussions, which can be seen here
