November 1, 2024
Berlin – The Federal Ministry of the Interior and for Building (BMI) is launching a new initiative to promote sports and physical activities among all segments of the population. The “Strengthening Sports and Physical Activities” initiative aims to create a more active and healthy society by making sports and physical activities accessible and appealing to everyone.
“Sports and physical activities are essential for a healthy and fulfilling life,” said Federal Minister of the Interior and for Building Nancy Faeser. “Through this initiative, we want to encourage everyone to lead an active lifestyle and reap the numerous benefits that come with it.”
The initiative focuses on four key areas:
- Promoting sports and physical activities in all settings: The initiative will support sports clubs, schools, and workplaces in offering a wide range of sports and physical activities tailored to different age groups and interests.
- Removing barriers to participation: The initiative will address factors that prevent people from participating in sports and physical activities, such as lack of access to facilities, financial constraints, or cultural barriers.
- Encouraging innovative approaches: The initiative will support innovative initiatives that promote sports and physical activities in new and engaging ways, such as digital and virtual fitness programs.
- Raising awareness of the benefits of physical activity: The initiative will launch a nationwide awareness campaign to educate the public about the physical, mental, and social benefits of regular exercise.
The “Strengthening Sports and Physical Activities” initiative will be funded with €100 million over the next five years. The funds will be used to support a range of projects, including:
- Grants to sports clubs and organizations for the development of new programs and activities
- Subsidies for low-income individuals and families to participate in sports and physical activities
- Research into the benefits of physical activity and innovative ways to promote it
“We believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to live an active and healthy life,” said Minister Faeser. “With this initiative, we are taking a major step towards making sports and physical activities accessible and appealing to all.”
The “Strengthening Sports and Physical Activities” initiative is part of the German government’s broader commitment to promoting health and well-being. The initiative complements other measures aimed at reducing sedentary behavior, improving nutrition, and reducing tobacco and alcohol consumption.
