Since 2009, the community has been organizing, with AgroSup Dijon, the UFR STAPS Dijon-Le Creusot and local partners, a special time for sharing around food and physical activity within the Village Taste Nutrition Santé (VGNS). This event, which is aimed at a wide audience (young people from elementary schools and college students of 6th, specific priority audiences such as people with disabilities, precariousness, etc. and the population as a whole, especially families), is also part of the Dijon Métropole local health contract signed in 2016.
The action is carried out every year, over several days in March, at Place de la République: workshops, stands and practice sessions allow everyone to (re) discover the principles of a balanced life, between healthy food and the benefits of sport.
“Eating well and being active are the two driving principles of good health. In addition, in this period of the Covid-19 crisis, it is very important to continue this mobilization and awareness-raising aimed at the Dijonnaise and the Dijonnais “ indicates Françoise TENENBAUM, municipal councilor responsible for health, hygiene and disability.
