Summary
The #BeActive Awards 2024 (hereafter referred to as the ‘Awards’) aim to reward and give visibility to projects and initiatives that have successfully promoted sport and physical activity across Europe.
It contributes to the HealthyLifeStyle4All initiative and to the promotion of sustainable and green sport. Depending on the prize, projects can focus on educational establishments and workplaces, as well as individuals in local communities. They can also support and promote ties across generations through the practice of sport and physical activity.

This may include additional activities, scheduling days outside of class that focus on sport, afterschool activities and other creative solutions that build an active education environment. - #BeActive Workplace Award

This award aims to reward projects promoting inter-generational sport, noting that everyone can benefit from activities that improve health and well-being. This may include the promotion of activities adapted to all generations, awareness raising across all generations for healthy lifestyles, as well as easier access to sport & physical activities for all generations.
