Embark on a team-oriented second connected walking challenge from the 11th to the 24th of March 2024, using the EUGLOH mobile app!

To kick off this Olympic year, EUGLOH is launching a challenge through a mobile app designed to enhance global health across the nine campuses of the Alliance.

As a positive start to the year, assess your physical activity level while connecting with friends and colleagues! The more your team walks, the more points you'll earn. Connect with others on the app to form your team, with international teams being promoted.

Throughout the semester, between 3 & 4 challenges will be presented. After successfully completing the challenges, participants will receive a certificate of participation. Those with the highest points in all challenges will be invited to join the Blended Intensive Programme in Paris, focusing on health, physical activity, and the Olympic Games in September
