SHARE 2.0 releases ideas papers on healthy lifestyles and mental health in sport

The SHARE 2.0 Community of Practice on health has published two “ideas papers” focused on promoting healthier lifestyles and supporting mental well-being through sport and physical activity. The first paper outlines strategies for creating health-enabling environments, such as integrating sport into urban planning, encouraging active mobility, and designing inclusive activities for all age groups. The second paper addresses mental health support for young people, recommending coach training, early detection in schools and sports clubs, and stronger collaboration between health and sport sectors. These resources are the result of the first annual SHARE 2.0 conference, held in Brussels in 2024, and aim to support policymakers and local actors in developing more inclusive and health-focused sport strategies across Europe.
