SIGA Strives V: Integrity body promotes rollout of Brain Breaks during Coronavirus crisis

March 27 – The Sport Integrity Global Alliance (SIGA) is partnering with the Foundation for Global Community Health (GCH) to bring Brain Breaks into homes around the globe.  

This is the fifth in a set of thirty boosting measures and initiatives announced by SIGA as part of the Alliance’s new global campaign #SIGASTRIVES.

Brain Breaks are 3-5 minutes web-based games and videos to get kids moving, raise awareness and inspire youth to take action in creating a better world for themselves and others.  Used in schools in 73 countries, the activities are now available free to families at https://brain-breaks.com.

Prof. Dr. Ming-Kai Chin, President and Founder, Foundation for Global Community Health (GCH), said: “We are so proud to offer the children of the world Brain Breaks for free.  With the co-operation of international health, wellness, and academic leaders, whose persistence and action with passion, have helped us deliver these evidenced-based activity breaks that inspire kids to take action in creating a better world for themselves and others.  We are excited to partner with SIGA and their vast network of international partners to bring movement and learning into homes around the world during this global pandemic.”

SIGA will contribute sport integrity content to the robust Brain Breaks® platform and work with GCH to distribute worldwide.

“Global problems call for global solutions.  SIGA is honored to partner with the Foundation for Global Community Health to serve youth and families who are sequestered to their homes during this international health crisis.  Movement and learning, including lessons on integrity in sport, can continue through the Brain Breaks ® platform.  Sport will survive and flourish in the aftermath of this crisis.  Let us all remain active and stimulate our brains so that we can continue to make the world a better place,” said Shellie Pfohl, COO of SIGA AMERICA.
