Health Challenge Initiative: Outgrowing ourselves together (SDG 8)

9 weeks, 4,300 participants and 2.1 billion steps – Colleagues from different countries and functions went on a journey around the world together, collecting steps and developing healthier habits.

The STADA Step Challenge was conducted for the first time in 2020. Countless local activities have encouraged everyone to keep going. Whether it was the water bottle or the rain jacket, the joint yoga sessions or Walking Wednesdays. Some colleagues have even participated in triathlons, climbed mountains or competed in tournaments. People pushed themselves both physically and mentally. It is not only about the physical effort, but also about being resilient. Especially the last stretch is often the hardest and it takes a strong will for the final sprint. Something employees also apply in their daily work routine. There has been no better way to demonstrate STADAs purpose of Caring for People’s Health as a Trusted Partner.
