We often hear about the “pandemic of inactivity”: we move too little, eat poorly, and gain weight. That’s certainly true. And yet… there’s another way to look at movement. We are homo ludens, the playing human. We move because it’s part of who we are. Health is a natural by-product. But life comes with “risk moments”; transitions that can disrupt our activity. Think of the move to secondary school. Or the phase when you become a parent; another life event. The social and physical environment also plays a crucial role. Is it supportive… or not?
At this networking event for professionals in sport and physical activity, we’ll explore these questions in depth. You’ll hear insights from researchers and engage in conversations about how these ideas can support us in our professional practice.
The event will be conducted in Dutch. Check the full programme.
