The BOKS Program, initiated in America, has succeeded in helping children live happy and healthy lives in developed countries such as Canada and Japan. Wahana Visi Indonesia is honored to implement the BOKS program in Indonesia, the first developing country to run BOKS. In partnership with schools and local government, the BOKS program will be continued through 2024 with the target of reaching more children and making them familiar with physical activities and eating healthy.
Make physical activity and play part of every child's day.
A healthier and happier generation of active kids
BOKS was inspired by the book Spark, which found:
Exercise is… “Miracle-Grow for the Brain”
Aerobic activity shaped 19,000 students from Naperville, Illinois making them the fittest and some of the smartest in the Nation.
“Exercise is the single most powerful tool that we have to optimize the function of our brains.”
