ISPAH is delighted to announce the third webinar in our GAPPA series, taking place on 10 November 2025. This series explores solutions to physical inactivity through the lens of the World Health Organization’s Global Action Plan on Physical Activity (GAPPA).
Following earlier discussions on البيئات النشطة و Active People, this session will focus on Active Societies, examining how social norms and attitudes shape participation in physical activity across different contexts. The webinar will highlight effective strategies for communicating physical activity messages, sharing evidence and experiences from diverse global perspectives.
