In April, the Network had an article on workplace wellness published in the bi-monthly scientific journal produced by partner organisation, “Sport et Citoyenneté”.

These articles follow on from the peer reviewed Healthy Stadia article that appeared in Health Promotion International (Oxford University Press) in early 2012. The article details the key findings taken from the EU funded European Healthy Stadia pilot project that ran between July 2007 and December 2009, and is still accessible online on HPI website here
