PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

Unlock the power of Physical Activity and Active Design to transform everyday spaces into catalysts for better health, stronger communities, and enhanced wellbeing. This module explores how the built environment often discourages movement—and how thoughtful design can reverse that trend by making activity a natural part of daily life. Learn how walkability, cycling infrastructure, accessible recreation spaces, inviting stairways, and strong transit connections directly influence health outcomes. You’ll gain practical tools to reduce chronic disease risk, boost wellness, and design environments that encourage people to move more throughout the day. From walkable, mixed-use communities and safer cycling networks to inclusive parks, fitness zones, and active workplaces, this course shows how movement-friendly design improves mood, productivity, and quality of life. Designed for architects, planners, developers, employers, and sustainability leaders, this module equips you to create healthier, more resilient, and more equitable places—where movement is easy, intuitive, and built into everyday life.

I wish that this content was mandatory back when I was a teacher in elementary schools. I implemented a few of these topics myself. This is a fantastic way for buildings to reach a standard of care for their occupants.
