GET ACTIVE TO GET HEALTHY - TC in Poland 2014

Описание: GET ACTIVE TO GET HEALTHY was an international training course for youth workers, facilitators and those who on daily bases work with youngsters trying to encourage them to take an active way of spending free time - with benefits for health.Training course gather 25 young people from 8 countries for one week program in Poronin/Poland.

Idea of the project came after observation that many of young people working in front of the computer for eight hours a day and then go home and head for couch to surf the Internet, watching TV or playing computer games. Research indicate that the amount of leisure time spent sitting in the front of a screen can have an overwhelming, seemingly irreparable impact on health. By this project we wanted to offer exchange of ideas and tools in order to develop strategies to encourage youngster to do physical activity which produce much more benefit. Main goal of our project was to promote healthy lifestyle, pro-health prevention and healthy eating. We tried to show alternative options of leisure and changing sedentary activities to active leisure.
