To familiarize young people with health topics and their own district in a playful way? This is very easy with the City Challenge of Vienna Health Promotion – WiG. The good thing is that there are still places available on the accompanied tours in the districts of Landstrasse, Simmering and Donaustadt. The tours were developed by young people for young people aged 12 to 19 and can be booked free of charge by schools and youth facilities for a school trip or an autumn afternoon until the end of October. “Young people are very familiar with digital tools and they enjoy being guided from station to station through the district on tours using the app. “They deal with health topics in various tasks and get to know leisure activities in their own neighborhood,” emphasizes Dennis Beck, Managing Director of Vienna Health Promotion – WiG.
