Andy Daly Smith addresses young adults in a lecture theatre

For the first time, #WSPA2024 is drawing together schools, education partners, policymakers and researchers to learn from leading school-based physical activity approaches from across the globe.

The conference is being hosted by the University of Bradford, Wolfson Centre for Applied Health Research and YSF and supported by Creating Active Schools, JU:MP, AFPE and Born in Bradford

Keynotes will advance understanding of what works, learning from pioneering schools, educational partners and policymakers that deliver and support those programmes.

#WSPA2024 involves inspirational keynotes, symposiums, co-design workshops, and poster presentations to help advance school-based physical activity for future generations.
