“Our commitment is not to sign up for contracts. I’m not saying that scenarios should not be built, because they should be, but it is not the priority. Our central objective is that all Colombian children and youth can do physical activity in their schools “Through physical education classes that forge free citizens who build democracy,” said Petro.
The president also stressed that mass physical activity in public schools can lead children and young people to win medals at the Olympic Games, highlighting the importance of combining physical and mental strength. According to Petro, physical development must go hand in hand with intellect, and this must be a mandate of the Colombian educational system.
“Among these free citizens is the one who goes to the Olympic Games to win, because he will have more strength to win, because within physical activity, in addition to muscles, There is a guiding force which is our brain. When you think you are going to win, your brain concentrates, despite some failure or pain, and you win,” said the president.
