A campaign by ENWHP

“Move Europe” is an initiative of the European Network for Workplace Health Promotion (ENWHP) – a campaign for the "improvement of lifestyle-related workplace health". In the scope of this project, the ENWHP network aims to persuade European companies and other organisations to invest in programmes to help improve life-style oriented behaviour in Europe. The main focus of the campaign is on four specific topics: smoking prevention, nutrition, physical exercise and mental health. The campaign is planned to run for 3 years and will end in 2009.
Promoting workplace health, and especially the topics covered by the "Move Europe" campaign directly in companies all over Europe, can help bringing these topics to education and training inside these companies as well. There are trainers and teachers related to or working in these companies who can use the campaign to strengthen the role of workplace health. The improvement of life-style oriented behaviours at the workplace has, of course, always been a topic for training and education in occupational health and safety as well.
More information about the initiative here.
