THE PROJECT “COME TOGETHER YOUTH EWOS 2016

The application UISP ACTIVE is an instrument of the project “Come Together Youth EWOS 2016 (for gathering young people within the 2016 Sports European Week).

Come Together Youth EWOS 2016 wants to organize an event in 6 EU countries to promote the slow exercise for health and raise awareness of young Europeans (aged 16-18 years) on HEPA and WHO Global recommendations on physical activity for health.

Main project’s components are training of sport organizations’ operators and physical education school teachers, education modules in schools, Ewos Sport Event.

Come Together is a slow sport event which consists of walking quickly or running slowly. It is a sort of ‘reversed match’ with a highly symbolic meaning because the teams, constituted by little groups with the same foot speed, will not leave so closely but will arrive all together, contrasting the traditional idea of one winner.
