New Guide Helps City Leaders Design for Physical Activity and Health

A CITY’S ABILITY TO COMPETE DEPENDS ON AN ACTIVE POPULATION.

THE RESEARCH
IS CLEAR ON THIS. INTEGRATING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY INTO THE PLACES WE WORK,
LIVE, LEARN, TRAVEL AND PLAY IS THE ONLY WAY TO ENSURE WE MOVE ENOUGH
TO THRIVE.

PHYSICAL INACTIVITY IS BANKRUPTING ECONOMIES AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL, BUT IT
IS FELT MOST ACUTELY BY THE WORLD’S CITIES – OFTEN THROUGH NEGATIVE IMPACTS
ON THE HEALTH OF PEOPLE, ECONOMIES AND THE ENVIRONMENT. THIS IS BAD NEWS
FOR CITIES AND THEIR CITIZENS.

THE GOOD NEWS IS THERE’S A SOLUTION.
OUR BODIES ARE DESIGNED TO MOVE. OUR CITIES SHOULD BE TOO.
