Strategic Organizations Project in Costa Rica Helps Professionals Get Fit

By Luis Solano-Mora, Costa Rica


The Strategic Organizations Project is part of the MOVI Program and is addressed to organizations and professionals who are working and developing projects in strategic organizations. The project wants to develop the healthy aging, expression and control of the emotions, personal and professional relationships, healthy lifestyles and quality of life through physical activity, sport and recreation.

In this project, students from the School of Sports Sciences of the Universidad Nacional de Costa Rica work with more than 100 people. Right now, the project is developed in the Minister of Security in Costa Rica with the candidates to obtain the title of police officials. They practice vigorous physical activity, recreation and sport sessions one day a week for one-and-a-half hour.

Once in a while, the students together with members of MOVI Program develop specific workshops in the topics above mentioned.

Professionals who are involved in related areas can contact MBA Inés Revuelta (general coordinator) by e-mail at movimien@una.ac.cr. Or go to the Web site (in Spanish) at http://www.una.ac.cr/ecd/movi.htm.
