Only 17% of Polish children meet WHO movement guidelines

According to the Global Matrix 4.0 study, just 17 percent of children in Poland meet WHO recommendations for daily physical activity. Experts say that restricting access to social media alone is not enough — attractive offline alternatives and adult support are also needed. Children spend many hours daily in front of screens at the expense of physical activity, developing interests, and contact with peers.
