The alliance is in line with the political agenda
of the Portuguese government to promote
and spread physical activity among all the citizens

‣ The alliance plans to establish a national network of technicians (at least one in each municipality) specialized in walking programs so that, for the first time, all cities will have similar walking activities all over the country.

‣ The alliance has additional contacts to various athletics/sports associations and teams, former athletes, and local organizations.
