Physical Activity and Health

The “Physical Activity and Health” Division addresses questions of physical activity promotion within the spectrum of the capabilities of health promotion in certain structures and individual physical activity-related health competence (PAHCO). For example, new ways for sustainable and structurally anchored physical activity promotion are developed, e.g. in vocational education or health care, using participatory approaches. Furthermore, the research focuses on interventions for motor control and motor learning in people with health conditions, or on possibilities for initiating physically active lifestyles in exercise therapy (also using digital technologies).
