| Summary: | <p>Dear colleagues!</p><p>One of the basic conceptual problems after the establishment of the Faculty of Physical Culture at Palacký University was the overall aim of its activities. With regards to the current problems of society, to problems associated with the physical, psychological, and social health of the current population, and to means, which we have at our disposal in our profession, the aim, expressed as the connection of two concepts, known as "movement and health" was accepted. This connection brings with it a very wide scope, demanding the interest of both natural and social sciences, and also responds to fields which are studied at our faculty. It therefore reflects not only in the scientific, but also in the educational orientation of the faculty. With regards to this reality, it seemed logical to introduce this concept by means of organizing an international conference "Movement and Health". Due to tragic events in the USA in 2001, which led to skipping one year of the conference, a fifth year of the conference is being organized in this year in cooperation with a number of international and national organizations. It can be said that a certain tradition has been built up and gradually, a line of interesting people from various countries have appeared in Olomouc, who have significantly contributed to this. With regards to the number of people who registered, it is obvious that the introduced trend will continue in the future. We would like to express our hopes that Olomouc will become a place, where interested experts will want to come in the future.</p><p>Dear colleagues, I wish you all not only enjoyment from your participation at this conference, but also enjoyment from visiting Olomouc, and to us, the organizers, I wish that we will be able to ensure this enjoyment.</p><p>Bohuslav Hodaň<br />Chairman of the 5th International Conference<br />Movement and Health 2007</p> |
