WHO - International Society for Physical Activity and Health - 2024

Still energised by the ISPAH - The International Society for Physical Activity and Health in France, co-organised by World Health Organization (WHO) and Société Française de Santé Publique (SFSP)! 

#ISPAH2024 focussed on ways to accelerate policy and practice to ensure physical activity for all!

✔ We learned a lot from >800 researchers, policymakers & practitioners 

✔ Presented our own activity bench research 

✔ Redesigned the Palais des Congrès de Paris 

Grateful to be able to present our own research in older persons as well! Supported by Care Innovation Center West-Brabant, LiCalab - Living & Care Lab, Coöperatie Slimmer Leven and innovAge / funded by Interreg Vlaanderen-Nederland. 

Follow-up effectiveness and implementation research is currently ongoing in Amsterdam with University of Amsterdam. It was a pleasure to join global experts, discuss evidence and explore pathways to enhance PA access and behavior worldwide. Wonderful to be part of this community as we race to reach the global target to reduce physical inactivity by 15% by 2030. Fantastic to see so much passion from all over the world gathered in Paris!
