Join our webinar on Democratising Access to Sport for All

We are happy to announce that TAFISA will be hosting a webinar in partnership with SportBox on the topic  "Democratising Access to Sport for All: Unlocking the potential of public spaces", on 15 May 2024, 12:00 – 13:00 (UTC+2/CEST). Register now and secure your spot!

The decline in physical activity poses significant health risks and economic burdens due to preventable noncommunicable diseases, costing billions annually. Barriers like cost, infrastructure, and socio-economic factors hinder widespread participation. TAFISA and SportBox believe in mobilising proven concepts to address the physical inactivity crisis by prioritising initiatives to increase opportunities for Sport for All and physical activity in public spaces. SportBox is a key player in providing new avenues of access to Sport for All and physical activity in public and open spaces.

The webinar will bring together experts in the field to discuss evidence for successful interventions and provide practical steps to implement solutions in your local areas. At the end of the webinar TAFISA and SportBox will announce a new Call to Action for the democratisation of Sports for All in public and open spaces.

Join us!! Learn, engage, and be part of the conversation!

Participation is FREE and open to everyone. Register now here: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_6hGHlNmkQzmQmaIRCjLvCA .

Following your registration, you will receive a link to join the Zoom webinar.

We look forward to an insightful session.
