A Global Active City is one that continually improves community resources and the built and social environments, so all residents can be physically active in day-to-day life.

To achieve Global Active City status, cities need to implement a management model which brings together multiple public and private stakeholders to work towards this common goal. As a result, residents’ quality of life improves, and cities realise social, environmental and economic benefits. Cities also become part of a powerful network of active cities.

As part of the programme, we offer cities expert support, guidance and ongoing assistance, in order to ensure a sustainable impact.
