Presentation of the health campaign «Camina la UAB! Per un campus més saludable i sostenible»

The UAB aims to foster the habit of walking around campus and its surrounding green areas with a campaign entitled "Camina la UAB! Per un campus més saludable i sostenible" ["Walk the UAB! For a healthier and more sustainable campus"].

Several teaching centres and schools will offer information on the itineraries and a campaign has been prepared with posters and banners placed around campus indicating the different itineraries. The UAB's Festa Major this year will also be related to the topic of health: "La UAB compromesa amb la salut".

Other actions which have been prepared to improve the wellbeing and health of people are the "Espai Saludable i Sostenible" located at the Central Axis, which gives priority to people and sustainable means of transport, and favours socialisation. The bus lines have also been rearranged to offer all members of the community a bus stop at no more than five-minutes walking distance.

The COVID-19 crisis has forced us to pay attention and improve our physical activity and lifestyle habits. The activities conducted at university, whether they be professional, academic, cultural or participtive, can now also be organised with an emphasis put on the wellbeing and health of each and every one of our members.
