Summary

This project establishes a Life Goals sports group for vulnerable young people (16–25 years) in Rotterdam. Through weekly sports activities and themed sessions, participants work on mental resilience and physical health. The project connects practice with science and develops a scalable set of measurement tools for impact assessment on physical activity and mental health. We will map the user experience, the needs of the target group, and the impact of personalization of the intervention participatively, to facilitate further implementation.
