37. The Future… The belief is that we now live in an intelligence economy, not a knowledge economy. It is how well people can think, solve problems, communicate and work in teams that are more important than simply how much you know. We must provide opportunities for developing children’s Thinking Skills & Personal Capabilities If we do not act, the obesity epidemic will continue, helping to fuel the looming health-care crisis and lowering the quality of educational achievement of our children. There is abundant evidence that regular physical activity benefits the brains and bodies of school-aged children.
