Overview
The South-East Asia Physical Activity Conference 2025 (SEAPAC 2025) is an international event focused on promoting equitable opportunities in physical activity across all sectors of society. It will be held from November 5-7, 2025, at the Centara Grand & Bangkok Convention Centre At CentralWorld in Bangkok, Thailand.
Purpose and theme:
The overarching theme of SEAPAC 2025 is “Uniting Movement: A Collective Action for Equitable Opportunities in Physical Activity.” Its core purpose is to bring together diverse stakeholders to work collaboratively towards creating a more active and healthier society.
The conference will explore four key pillars of the Uniting Movement:
- Collaboration: Partnering with organizations and stakeholders to create inclusive physical activity programs and policies.
- Integration: Aligning community-based initiatives for promoting physical activity.
- Advocacy: Raising awareness and influencing policies on equitable access to physical activity.
- Engagement: Encouraging participation from diverse community groups.
To further visualize and emphasize the comprehensive coverage of the “Uniting Movement” theme, the conference will address critical sub-themes across various population groups. The sub-themes of Policy, Surveillance/Situation, Intervention, Tech Innovation, and Best Practices will be explored in depth for all age groups, including pregnancy and post-partum, early childhood, children, adolescents, working-aged adults, older adults, and vulnerable populations (those least active).
