The Activist In Motion is a website for everyone who believes, or wants to believe, that we can overcome the global public health crisis of physical inactivity and sedentary behavior.

We cover what’s working, what’s not working, and the efforts of “Activists In Motion” across the globe.

Our ultimate goal – by providing information and inspiration, as briefly as possible – is to accelerate the rebuilding of cultures where healthy movement and physical activity are prioritized, accessible and enjoyable for persons of all ages and abilities.
