Abstract Purpose These policy documents foster physical activity and sports that empowers every individual, regardless of their age, health status, or background, to lead healthier, more active lives. Methodology was based on desk research, analysis and synthesis of Slovenian policy documents. Policy Description In Slovenia, policy documents significantly influence the landscape of physical activity and sports, reflecting the nation's commitment to a healthier and more active society for all, including vulnerable populations. The National Sports Program (2014-2023), outlines a strategic direction for sports development, with a focus on enhancing participation and excellence in sports. This program affects a wide range of populations, including children, adults, individuals with disabilities, and those with chronic diseases. The National Nutrition and Physical Activity Programme (2015-2025), places strong emphasis on the importance of nutrition and physical activity in improving public health and overall well-being. The impact of this program extends to all citizens, with a particular emphasis on children, pregnant women, adults, and individuals with chronic diseases. 3. The Strategy for the Health of Children and Adolescents (2012; still ongoing), prioritizes the well-being of young generations by considering their environment, including opportunities for physical activity. This strategy primarily targets children and adolescents, addressing concerns related to obesity, health inequalities, and chronic non-communicable diseases.
