Hello! I am Minerva and I am a sports communication trainee in the METKA.

My task is to plan the communication of the Metropolia on the move project. The aim is to increase students’ and teachers’ awareness of sports opportunities. We want to increase physical activity during study days and reduce sitting.

I am from Eastern Finland. I am currently studying health sciences at the University of Jyväskylä. Exercise and well-being are important to me and I want to work on the subject.

Exercise has positive effects on overall health. Physical activity of students is linked to coping with studies. I have been able to enjoy the best of exercise myself and I want everyone to have that opportunity.
