At the BCCEWH, we have studied how communities can increase the participation of low-income women in physical activity and recreation, and published a literature review on the links between physical activity and health.  We are currently involved in helping to expand a program originally developed to help women with osteoporosis exercise safely and in studying women’s experiences of physical activity over their lifetimes. We are also interested in the opportunities for girls and women generated by the 2010 Olympic Games in Vancouver/Whistler.
