The Social City Wien and DASGYM. are jointly launching the pilot project "DASGYM. BUDDIES" - a unique program that combines exercise, social support and mental health promotion. The aim is to reduce loneliness and strengthen self-confidence, self-efficacy and social participation.
The World Health Organization (WHO) describes loneliness as a global health challenge. DASGYM. BUDDIES responds by combining exercise with social contact and mental health promotion.
Low-threshold approaches, reliable relationship experiences and stabilizing routines help to strengthen mental stability and self-efficacy.
The program brings teenagers, young adults and anyone looking to connect with volunteer buddies from the gym together. This gives participants a safe introduction to training, routines and the community. A buddy accompanies the first step - and turns the fitness experience into a shared, motivating experience.
