Proposal:
insPoweredBy looks beyond the silos that define how people are trained and how they think, work and collaborate. Combining movement and sport with culture, education, nutrition, psychology, urban planning and arts, we can support policy-making that focuses on people’s well-being.
The founder of insPoweredBy is also the founder or co-founder of three sports-led charities: Reach For The Moon (www.decrochonslalune.ch), designed to fight sedentarism by encouraging people to cover the distance to the moon through sponsored activities, COOKIE, which provides support to young elite athletes in Switzerland. (www.amisdecookie.ch) and the Republic of Sport, which promotes the social inclusion of young migrants in Switzerland, through sport.
