βWe need more countries to scale up implementation of policies to support people to be more active through walking, cycling, sport and other physical activity,β said Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO director general. βThe benefits are huge, not only for the physical and mental health of individuals but also for societies, environments and economies. We hope countries and partners will use this report to build more active, healthier and fairer societies for all.β
We believe Physical Activity is a WIN WIN and we are urging all organisations and companies to lead the way and inspiring their community to be active.
