Abstract

The Brazilian Society of Physical Activity & Health (SBAFS) plays an important role in uniting researchers and strengthening the field in Brazil. For this reason, the decisions and directions of the different leaderships of SBAFS help in the development and consolidation of the area. One of the important actions of the SBAFS in recent years was the creation of Working Groups (WGs) on different themes of physical activity and health. One of the WGs created was the Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior Measurement WG. In this context, the aim of this manuscript is to describe the creation of the aforementioned WG, its activities and actions in the period of 2019 to 2021.
