Physical Activity as a Key to a Healthy and Sustainable Future
Our Focus in Research, Teaching, and Knowledge Transfer
We explore the individual and societal determinants and effects of physical activity, as well as questions relating to the sustainable implementation of health promotion programs involving physical activity across a range of settings, including universities, workplaces, municipalities, and schools. Our work also addresses different target groups, such as children and adolescents, older adults, and men, and examines how educational perspectives can be effectively integrated into school physical education and physical education teacher education.
