YOUTH AND SPORTS. YOUR OPINION COUNTS IN EUROPE
Online, 18 March 2022. From 9.00 to 10.30h.
Sports is an integral part of the lives of millions of Europeans. Supporting sports builds community cohesion, increases social inclusion and leads to a greater sense of European identity. Sports is also a key facet of the Member States and the larger European economies; the sector employs millions of European citizens and adds billions in revenue.
Sports is, therefore, a vital part of what being European means. Policy-makers, education professionals and regional and national experts participate directly and regularly to ensure that sports continues to address challenges in this field.
