Fit bodies, fit minds, a healthy planet and a healthy sector can achieve much more. So how can we get into better shape to move with the times and make a difference?
Health goes beyond physical health. Recreational physical activity intersects with physical, mental and social health, enhancing people’s wellbeing.
Grassroots sport can foster social inclusion and create welcoming communities for everyone, but it needs to be used intentionally.
An active lifestyle is important throughout life. Recreational physical activity helps older adults maintain mobility, feel connected to the local community, improve independence and quality of life.
Volunteers are the backbone of grassroot sports organisations. Volunteering enriches people’s lives by providing a sense of purpose, new skills and social connections in the local community. How can we motivate and engage volunteers?
Just as we teach reading and writing, we must teach physical and health literacy to equip people to access and maintain an active lifestyle.
Schools and kindergartens play a significant role in creating healthy habits from childhood. Physically active learning increases participation, and overall well-being by embracing movement throughout the school day.
Engaging children and youth in grassroots sport associations empowers them to shape the future of movement, sports, and society. Beyond viewing them as a target group, we need to amplify their voices in all stages of decision-making and programme design.
Local sports associations can be catalysts for climate action through education, mobilisation, and adaptation efforts. They can promote sustainable behaviour by linking physical activity and well-being with environmental sustainability.
Physical inactivity and childhood obesity are deepening crisis, how can we ensure that appropriate political priorities are invested in physical activity and grassroots sport so that everyone has a chance to practice their Human Right to MOVE.
“The really special thing about the MOVE Congress is that there are so many sports implementers and activists and projects that are operating outside of the normal sports structure. So coming to the MOVE Congress is incredibly inspirational because we’re learning about all of the different practices and techniques of good project design”
