        "Green Footprint Lightening on sports Activities, Management, and Events" (Green FLAME) aims to promote a more sustainable sports environment in general and promote neutral sports events by encouraging not only sport managers but also fans. This goal will be achieved thanks to the experience and leadership of the Spanish Olympic Committee in the field of sports sustainability, but especially by the transnational cooperation of the consortium, which includes Olympic committees, research, and innovation institutions, a sports association, and one SME specialised on the development of gamified apps.

        Sustainability in Sport 45m

        In 2021, the EU made climate neutrality, the goal of zero net emissions by 2050, legally binding and also set an interim target of 55% emission reduction by 2030.
        Sport is not exempt from the challenges associated with climate change and biodiversity loss with low and even zero flow on waterways, extreme heat causing events to be cancelled and lack of snow for skiing to give just a few examples.
        Understanding the implications of climate change and biodiversity loss as well as our own impacts is the starting point for effective management, reduction and mitigation.
        This lab will highlight some of the latest data and provide information on the work that the EU Green Sports Working Group has done as well as the UNFCCC Sports for Climate Action - https://unfccc.int/climate-action/sectoral-engagement/sports-for-climate-action - programme. It will provide examples of good practice within the sports sector but also challenge participants to be interactive and to work collaboratively for effective and positive change in their organisations and projects towards a modus operandi that is more environmentally friendly and sustainable.

        Gender Equality 30m

        Gender equality is one of the priorities of the European Union (EU). The EU has committed to promoting gender equality in all areas, including in sport and recognizes that promoting gender equality in sports is important for ensuring that everyone has equal access to opportunities and resources, regardless of their gender. The lack of gender diversity in sports leadership can have negative impacts on gender equality in sports, as it can lead to policies and decisions that favour men over women, as well as perpetuate gender stereotypes and discrimination.

        The project Gender Equality (GE FORCE) aims to empower sport organizations to balance gender representation in their leadership positions. The project delivers three main objectives such as research on gender equality at the leadership level of sport organizations, development of an online educational program on how to enhance gender representation and an online consultancy system that can be used as a self-evaluation tool within the sport sector.

        In an era where athletes strive not only for excellence in their sports disciplines but also for well-rounded personal and professional development, the concept of dual careers has gained paramount importance.
        Drawing from her own journey as a professional futsal player and her role in EU ATHLETES, Natalia Orive will delve into the intricacies of dual careers, discussing the challenges athletes face while juggling rigorous training schedules, competitions, and the pursuit of academic or professional qualifications.

It aims to expand and implement on the previous "All in" project with more recommendations and action plans on gender equality in sports through three main pillars: data collection and analysis in six key areas, creation of an online resource centre containing best practice examples; and work with and through the media to ensure greater awareness-raising about gender inequalities in sport.

        Exercise is an European priority for healthy communities. Current approaches to exercise participation have identified and addressed intrapersonal aspects of education, motivation and cultural sensitivity but often overlook how communities’ physical environments also contribute to constrain physical activity. Here we take an ecological perspective into how urban environments constrain women’s engagement in exercise.
