Synthesis of the case study
The article was based on the Global Advocacy for Physical Activity (GAPA) in 2013. It illustrates the work that has been recently done by GAPA on the field of promoting physical activity globally, and gives an overview of the background and history of GAPA, the council’s key achievements and milestones, GAPA'S flagship, reflections on the lessons learned, ingredients for success and the major remaining challenges. In addition, the article gives insights to the challenges that small non-governmental organisations (NGOs) face in mounting for global advocacy.
