IBK Competition 2016

Twelve projects from Liechtenstein 2016 - two special awards for FL

The importance of prevention and health promotion is growing. Fundable ideas for innovative, sustainable and multipliable projects in these areas are in demand. For this reason, the IBK has been offering the IBK Prize for Health Promotion & Prevention since 2001 - in order to publicize and honor best practice examples beyond national and cantonal borders. Projects that provide impetus, that encourage the exchange of ideas and experiences.

Of the 136 projects submitted, 24 were nominated. An international jury of experts selected the winners, who were honored at the awards ceremony.

The winners were chosen by the jury

The joint project "Freelance" was awarded second prize.  "freelance" is a joint program of the prevention agencies from the cantons of Appenzell Ausserrhoden, Graubünden, Nidwalden, St.Gallen, Schaffhausen, Thurgau, Zug and the Principality of Liechtenstein.

In addition, Liechtenstein was able to receive special honors with a special prize for the "Wahnsinnsnächte" project and a TV sport for the "Berg i Bewegig" project.
