Members of the AVP Fraction recently participated in a meeting of the Aruba Parliament’s Health Committee, where the organization Movemento Ta Bida (Movement is Life) presented its vision, work, and contribution to the well-being and health of the Arubanese community.
During the presentation, Mrs. Madel Jacopucci and Mr. Rudy Leysner provided members of Parliament with more information regarding the various initiatives developed by Movemento Ta Bida, emphasizing the importance of physical activity, prevention, and the adoption of a healthier lifestyle.
One of the central messages is the importance of adults moving for at least 30 minutes a day. Regular physical activity not only contributes to better physical condition but also forms part of a preventive approach to promote health and quality of life.
Jacopucci and Leysner also shared the valuable work they carry out for Aruba and reported that Movemento Ta Bida recently began receiving a government subsidy, which will contribute to the continuity of its labor in the community.
The meeting offered space for an exchange of ideas and to discuss various challenges that citizens face in the area of health and well-being, and how organizations working directly in the community can contribute to practical and effective solutions.
For the AVP Fraction, it is essential that parliament maintains a direct dialogue with organizations active in the community. Their experience, daily work, and direct contact with citizens offer valuable information to develop public policy that better connects with the needs and reality of the people.
“Health is not just about illness. Health is also investing in prevention, education, and creating opportunities for people of all ages to stay active. If we can stimulate more people to move and adopt healthy habits, we are directly investing in the quality of life of our people,” the AVP Fraction emphasizes.
The AVP Fraction thanks Movemento Ta Bital, Mrs. Madel Jacopucci, and Mr. Rudy Leysner for their presentation, dedication, and continuous commitment to the Arubanese community.
The AVP Fraction will continue to support and promote initiatives that place prevention and well-being at the center, contributing to a healthier, more active Aruba with a better quality of life for all citizens.
