ParticipACTION is pleased to present the ParticipACTION Report Card on Physical Activity for Children and Youth. The ParticipACTION Report Card provides a comprehensive assessment of the current status of physical activity for children and youth in Canada.
For the first time, the Report Card takes a stand on play in nature and the outdoors – with its risks – and includes a Position Statement on Active Outdoor Play. The statement was developed by the Healthy Active Living and Obesity Research Group at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute (HALO-CHEO), ParticipACTION and a group of 12 other organizations, and was supported by over 1,600 stakeholders from across Canada and around the world.
