Our Highway to Health

  • Welcome to our "Highway to Health" project.

    We are setting of on an Olympic journey dealing with the topic of health.

    Each of the five participating countries (Spain, Slovakia, Belgium, Germany and Greece) will host a meeting in which we will deal with a topic related to health. 

    The achievements we obtain in each of the five countries will be symbolized by an Olympic ring.  All the rings will come together in our final meeting in Greece - the birthplace of the Olympic spirit and European civilisation.

    Our Olympic torch will travel from country to country to end its journey in Greece.
