8 Investments Community Hub

8 Investments Community Hub

Welcome to the ISPAH #8Investments Community Hub

The Community Hub is a community of practice – where everyone, everywhere, can share experiences of promoting physical activity.

The role of the Community Hub is to connect our global community. Sharing real life experiences of creating and designing, implementing, and evaluating, physical activity promotion connected with the 8 investments in the real-world.

The content of the Community Hub is and will continue to be shaped by you – our global community of academics, policymakers, practitioners, and everyone in between, who are united in enabling a more active world.

The Eight Investments That Work for Physical Activity document summarises the evidence for each of the 8 investments as well as the benefits of adopting a whole systems approach. The Eight Investments is a call to action for everyone, everywhere to embed physical activity in national and sub-national policies.

The process of implementing these evidence-based actions varies by country and context, and at times can be confusing and challenging.
