The 3rd Yogyakarta International Seminar on Health, Physical Education, and Sports Science (YISHPESS)2019

The ultimate goal of physical education and physical activity promotion is to facilitate and encourage individuals to engage in a physically active lifestyle. It can be achieved by improving physical literacy, which is defined as ‘the ability of individuals to move with competence and confidence in a wide variety of physical activities, in multiple environments that benefit the healthy development and overall quality of life of the whole person.’

Prior to developing strategies for improving physical literacy, its concept needs to be defined and conceptualized because it involves complex interplays of individuals’ knowledge and understanding of physical activity as well as individuals’ motivation, self-confidence and physical competence for being physically active for life.

The 3rd Yogyakarta International Seminar on Health, Physical Education, and Sports Science (YISHPESS 2019) respond to this issue by organising the conference which carries a theme of  “Developing Physical literacy in Physical Education and Sport for Improving Quality of Life”. The Conference invites reputable international scholars and experts closely working in physical literacy, physical education and sports science in general.
