January is the month of new beginnings and resolutions revolving around healthy habits. On top of that, 2024 promises to become an exciting year as the XXXIII. Summer Olympics will be held in Paris this summer.

In the spirit of the Olympics, the EUGLOH community invites all citizens of the partner universities to start 2024 actively and to join the four health-related challenges that will guide us through the first half of year, up until June.

The challenges will take 2-3 weeks respectively. The participants shall join teams of 5 and can change teams between challenges. International teams are highly encouraged.

The first challenge will start on 22th January and will close on 5h February with the goal of inspiring participants to walk as much as they can during this period.


How does it work?

After they downloaded a special app named Kiplin (equally available on Android and iOS), participants should create an account using the access code EUGLOH2024 and join the EUGLOH challenge on the Home Page or under Games.

From that on, the app tracks the number of steps taken or the time spent with walking every day. The app also provides team challenges, interesting articles, quizzes and chatrooms, so participants can encourage each other on being consistent, can learn and share their ideas.

For top-performing students, a blended intensive program focusing on health, physical activity, and the Olympic Games will be offered in Paris, France, in September. Besides, all participants meeting all four challenges will gain knowledge, a healthier daily routine and a certificate.
