PAST PROJECTS

In the past, Vivo collaborated with the community on several comprehensive research projects to assess the impact of play and physical activity in the local community:

  • Vivo Play Project

    The Vivo Play Project was a four-year social innovation and community lab with the Public Health Agency of Canada, Suncor Energy Foundation, University of Calgary and local Community Associations that encouraged kids and families to move and connect more in local parks through free loose parts play.

  • 4-in-1 Physical Literacy Program

    Traditionally in a one-hour recreation program, children spend an average of 61% of their time standing, sitting or lying down. Vivo flipped this statistic on its head by creating a 4 in 1 Physical Literacy Program.

  • Vivo Instructor

    The Vivo instructor, also known as the Gen H Instructor, was built from research to combat sedentary behaviors while still having fun, developing skills and improving physical literacy for the participants in our programs.
