Public Health has launched a new strategy to combat sedentarism, centered on the guide "Small Changes to Move More," which encourages incorporating more movement into daily life.

The initiative, led by Public Health, is based on the slogan "Every movement counts" to facilitate the integration of small changes into daily routines. The main objective is to reduce sedentary time and promote a more active lifestyle among citizens.
The "Small Changes to Move More" guide is structured around three main axes: More, Change, and Less. These axes offer practical ideas and accessible proposals to increase movement in daily activities, targeting both individuals and community settings.
It is reminded that great efforts are not necessary; adding small actions such as walking, climbing stairs, making active commutes, or getting up frequently during the day contribute significantly to health. The initiative emphasizes that any increase in movement is beneficial for overall well-being.
