INTERNATIONAL MEETING UNDER THE FIT FOR KIDS EUROPE PROJECT WAS HELD IN PORTUGAL
18.05.2023
In the period 16-18 May 2023, an international partner meeting under the Fit For Kids Europe project was held in Amarante, Portugal. The main goal of the ”Fit for Kids Europe” project is to establish a network of EU sport associations and other related NGO’s who wish to collaborate on increasing the participation of inactive, overweight and obese children in after-school organized physical activities. Joanna Dochevska and Ivaylo Zdravkov – board members of BSDA – took part in the meeting on behalf of the Bulgarian sports development association (partner in the project from Bulgaria).
Fit for Kids Europe intends to reach its main goal by combining three actions:
1) Expand the FitforKids programme;
2) Present FitforKids as a best-in-class case study and true driver for volunteer based social/health programmes;
3) Recognition of different ethnic groups living in EU Member States.
The FitforKids program is a public multi-component intervention that is implemented in Denmark, Bulgaria, Italy, Portugal and Turkey and aims to improve the lifestyle and health of children and their families. The FitforKids program consists of five elements: Nutritional advice, Physical training for both children and parents, Parent Coaching, a Motivational program and Social Events. FitforKids is completely free for the families and it supported by many private and public institutions, including the Danish government.
