Earlier this autumn the Eurohealthnet with help from Public Health Agency of Sweden published an article covering the development om Physical Activity on Prescription in Sweden and EUPAP project. 


"There is strong evidence for the use of physical activity to prevent and treat non-communicable diseases.

Today, the Public Health Agency of Sweden coordinates an EU-funded project to support the implementation of the method in nine other European countries."
