Promotion of Healthy Lifestyle in the Village Ikalto

Georgia | Momavlis Taoba - Civic Education Program | 21 May 2018


School-based civics club students in the village Ikalto conducted a survey among the students how they spent free time. The results of the survey showed that the computer games take the most of the free time of the students.
To improve the situation civics club students decided to organize information campaign in the community to promote healthy lifestyle. Students prepared informational flyers and disseminated them in the community. Seminar on healthy lifestyle was held at the school. Students met with the representatives of local administration, shared with them the initiative and asked to support the arrangement of the cycling marathon in the village. Local authorities supported students’ initiative and during the marathon the traffic was stopped.
The participants of the marathon were school students, as well as community members.
