The "VeloLife" club, established with the support of the Ministry of Youth and Sports of the Republic of Azerbaijan and organized by the Union of Student Youth Organizations of Azerbaijan, has commenced its activities under the auspices of the Student Youth Organization (TGT) at Baku Eurasian University (BAAU).
The "VeloLife" project aims to promote and encourage the use of bicycles in daily life, fostering healthy lifestyle habits among students and youth under the motto "Healthy Students, Healthy Youth." This initiative is aligned with the 2024 "Year of Solidarity for a Green World" and the 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP29). The project seeks to safeguard the physical health of students while emphasizing the role of bicycles as a sustainable mode of transportation, contributing to a reduction in the carbon footprint and promoting environmental conservation.
As part of BAAU’s Student Youth Organization (SYO), we have launched a new project titled "EcoPedal" to further this objective. The project aims to organize educational events for students, highlighting the benefits of bicycle use while promoting a healthy lifestyle and environmentally conscious behavior.
The launch of the "VeloLife" club at Baku Eurasian University marks a significant step toward enhancing physical activity among students and supporting the achievement of sustainable development goals. Through this initiative, we aim to foster a culture of health and environmental responsibility among the student body.
