CLIMB UNITED: USMB takes action against sedentary lifestyle in Higher Education
The Université Savoie Mont Blanc (USMB), together with the Università di Torino (UNITO), the Universidad de Zaragoza (UNIZAR), the Universidade da Beira Interior (UBI), and the University of Ljubljana (UNILJ), has launched CLIMB UNITED – Ascend Together, a European project tackling sedentary lifestyles in universities. Funded by the European Commission, the initiative brings together these five partner universities to identify barriers to physical activity and test innovative solutions. Starting in January 2026, students and staff from all five universities will be able to participate in a dedicated survey designed to help shape the project. CLIMB UNITED aims to promote an active lifestyle and engage university communities across Europe in sustainable, long-term change.
