Sports activities to be offered once again under the Dones ens Movem a la UAB programme
From 5 to 16 March 2025 the UAB will be celebrating International Women's Day in the 2nd edition of Les Dones ens Movem a la UAB programme, aimed at promoting physical activity among women on campus by offering a wide range of sports activities, fitness and mindfulness, at the UAB's sports facilities and libraries. Registration is free.

The data on healthy habits and physical activity for the 2023/24 academic year show that gender inequalities are still detected. A total of 76% of female undergraduate students practice physical activity regularly, compared to 89% of male students. As for the data on sedentary lifestyles, female students are twice as likely to be sedentary as male students. The objective, therefore, is to give visibility to this issue and encourage women to practice sports, facilitating their access to sports and promoting their participation in healthy and diverse physical activities.
The activities scheduled for the second edition of the Les Dones Ens Movem programme at the UAB are practical workshops on hypopressive exercises, foam roller training, core training with gliding discs, Latin dance and HBX (boxing-based training). It will also be possible to participate in the Biblio Mou-te programme, designed by the Library Service, in which, through moderate physical activities, participants will be able to improve their capacity for attention, concentration, memorisation and approach to study. The programme offers introductory sessions for volleyball, climbing, badminton, soccer and basketball. There also will be workshops on women's self-defense and WODS (workout of the day), the latter exclusively for women members of the Physical Activity Service (SAF).
This initiative is aligned with the Plan to Promote Women's Sport in Catalonia 2024-2030 of the General Secretariat for Sport and Physical Activity of the Government of Catalonia, as well as within the framework of the 5th Action Plan for Gender Equality of the UAB 2024-2030 and the guidelines of the Equality and Diversity Service to promote equal opportunities and a healthy lifestyle for all women in the university community.
In the web section Les Dones ens Movem a la UAB you can consult the schedules and locations of the programme of activities and workshops that will be held and all the details to sign up and participate.
