�鶹��ý

In May, explore simple ways to add more movement to your day. The sustainable mobility theme month focuses on small, easy-to-do choices: make short trips on foot or by bike, turn meetings into walking meetings, and break up your work or study day with short activity breaks.

Throughout May, the City of Espoo and Aalto University, in cooperation with local organisations, will host free events open to all. These events invite you to do things together, being active is more enjoyable in good company. Even small actions can quickly benefit both wellbeing and the environment.

A variety of activities

Together with your work or study group, pick from the programme the ideas that suit you best; here are some examples:

Movement in everyday life

You can build more physical activity into your day with small choices. Take the stairs instead of the elevator and add a short stretch break. Get around �鶹��ý on foot or by bike. Staff can use their My Hour for an outdoor workout, a morning jog, or a walking meeting. If participants are on �鶹��ý, meet in person and walk or use a �鶹��ý bike between locations.

You can also create your own campaigns within your team or study group to boost everyday physical activity. Ideas include a week-long “take the stairs, not the elevator” challenge, a step-count competition between teams, or a contest for the most sustainable commute. Share experiences, photos, and ideas in your team’s communication channels so that good examples spread and inspire others to join.

May offers an opportunity to try new ways of moving and to find lasting ways to increase activity in everyday life. When choices are made together, being active becomes easier, more fun and more effective.
