ORANJESTAD — The AVP parliamentary faction is stressing the importance of investing in prevention and physical activity to promote a healthier Aruba, following a presentation by the organization Movemento Ta Bida to Parliament’s Health Committee.

During the meeting, Madel Jacopucci and Rudy Leysner outlined the organization’s work, with emphasis on physical activity, prevention and healthier lifestyles. One of its main messages is that adults should be physically active for at least 30 minutes a day.
