Outdoor recreation refers to recreation/activity executed outdoors, most commonly in natural settings. At least in many high-income countries, outdoor recreation is by many considered as an attractive activity during spare time or holidays. People actively seek out activities such as walking in the mountains, climbing, hunting, horseback riding, skiing, etc., which are very often difficult to accommodate in ordinary working days. Some people find outdoor recreation attractive to the extent that they take several months or a year off from work in order to spend time in nature. Outdoor recreation stimulates a healthy lifestyle and increases public health, and it is important to develop outdoor activity habits from early childhood, a habit that should last for an entire lifetime. This book will take you through the definitions of outdoor recreation and different types of recreation. Furthermore, the book will also give you a snapshot of the physiological and psychological effects of outdoor recreation and why outdoor recreation is important for development in children and adolescents, and for adults and the older population, in addition to descriptions of some of the major and maybe the most used outdoor activities.

Aquest informe té la finalitat d'analitzar el paper de l'esport com a mitjà per a millorar les condicions de vida de les dones i per a desenvolupar la igualtat de gènere en l'esport. Repassa les principals tendències en l'esport de les dones, analitza les dades estadístiques que mesuren l'esport femení, presenta i actualitza alguns dels principals debats que han vertebrat aquest camp d'estudi, recopila nombroses experiències que representen bones pràctiques i fonts d'inspiració per a avançar en la participació esportiva de les dones, i ofereix una panoràmica del paper de les institucions internacionals i nacionals darrere de la igualtat de gènere en l'esport. L'informe pretén servir a les administracions públiques, al món associatiu i al personal tècnic esportiu, preferentment a la Comunitat Valenciana, per a aprofundir en aquesta matèria, conéixer l'estat de la qüestió i inspirar iniciatives al voltant de la igualtat de gènere en l'esport. Encara que el focus està posat en l'esport i en les dones valencianes, l'abast i les recomanacions d'aquest informe poden superar el marc de la societat valenciana
