Change the game 2025
This year, the focus is on how we together can create a future where everyone can and wants to take part in positive movement experiences – in order to feel good and perform well – simply become their best selves.
But also so that everyone has the same chance for a good and safe life, regardless of gender or where they live. The city, place or community that can offer this creates an attractive living environment and a spiral of satisfied and healthy citizens.
To succeed, we need to develop our ability to create movement experiences that develop people’s relationship with movement. With a holistic view of people in movement and a dose of curiosity, we know that everyone, regardless of sector or experience, can succeed.

Previous years
Since 2014, we have, together with our local partners, arranged an event in Umeå every autumn with the intention of inspiring the creation of a physical literacy community.
The event usually consists of conferences, special educations and activities that highlight how, by starting from a holistic view of the human being, one can create movement experiences that increase our relationship with movement.
Leading researchers, program developers, change leaders and thought leaders from our local area, Sweden and the world participate. They contribute to creating an attractive meeting place for participants who want to broaden their consciousness, fill themselves with inspiration, grow their network and adopt new ideas to enable positive movement experiences.
Since the start, the annual events have attracted just over 30,000 participants from over 30 countries.
The main organizer of Change the game 2025 is Change the game Utbildning AB (owned by the non-profit foundation, “Stiftelsen för rörelserikedom”) – a knowledge center with methods and training for everyone who wants to create more attractive and sustainable societies with focus on quality movement experiences – together with, among others, the Balticgruppen, Umeå School of Sport Sciences, Region Västerbotten, RF-SISU Västerbotten, RISE and Umeå municipality
