Photo story - Young people from Transnistria say “Yes!” to healthy eating and more physical activity

To mobilize all schools and communities to undertake concrete actions that support the adoption of a healthy diet and active lifestyle, WHO in collaboration with local health specialists introduced school lessons to educate young people in these areas. The lively, interactive 1-hour sessions are being conducted in all schools on the left bank of the Dniester River.

On 5 December 2018, students from School No. 1 in Parcani were the first to receive the special lesson about physical activity; reduction of fat, salt and sugar consumption; and the negative influence of smoking and alcohol on health.
