This Thursday, October 26th at 7:00 PM in the Carmelo Gómez Templado Auditorium of the House of Arts and Music, the first of the talks in the series will be held. Each talk will last 1 hour and 30 minutes and will be given by Juan Luis Yuste, PhD in Physical Activity and Sports Sciences and professor at the Faculty of Education of the University of Murcia.

The series of conferences on sports is part of the Cieza City Council's Education Department's project, called Cieza Educating City.

According to the Councilor for Education, Manuela Fernández, "As an educating city, we are working to ensure that education is a cross-cutting element of all local policies, raising awareness and strengthening the educational potential of actions and programs related to health, the environment, urban planning, mobility, culture, and sports."

"On this occasion, we are working with the Department of Sports and Health on a topic as important as sports, because sports have become a social and cultural phenomenon of utmost importance for citizens of all ages, possibly due to the educational values they convey."

Physical activity provides numerous benefits to an individual's quality of life. Sport and exercise can have positive effects on social, emotional, and mental well-being; they can provide satisfying and pleasurable experiences; they foster social connections; and they contribute to empowerment.
