Description

Exercise is an European priority for healthy communities. Current approaches to exercise participation have identified and addressed intrapersonal aspects of education, motivation and cultural sensitivity but often overlook how communities’ physical environments also contribute to constrain physical activity. Here we take an ecological perspective into how urban environments constrain women’s engagement in exercise.
