"Voga&Share project aims to create a participatory model for non-competitive rowing events which empowers young people (12-18 years old) in creating inclusive ""European"" crews with students from various EU countries. The model foresees in in its 1st edition, the participation in the Vogalonga in Venice and can be later replicated in future non-competitive rowing events in other countries. The project aims to:-encourage sport activity among young people, helping to improve their psychophysical health,-raise awareness about the environmental issues related to the increasing spread of motorboats to the detriment of rowing,-promote social inclusion by recruiting rowers within unprivileged areas, trying to contain dropout or radicalization with an emphasis on equal opportunities and gender diversity,-promote networking:-at a local level - between clubs and schools: sports clubs possess a range of skills that are not currently utilized at best by the schooling system and are not therefore neither usable nor properly enhanced-at European level - between clubs and schools of EU countries, encouraging the exchange of competences in the EU,-encourage collaboration within the European Sports Week, which will be an opportunity to re-enact the project in the future, involving new partners,-promote the development of a European identity through the establishment of teams of youngsters from the EU countries, while enhancing linguistic proficiency of participants.Main activities: - Write and disseminate a Vademecum of a model for participation in non-competitive rowing events at European level which can then be replicated for future sporting events with the same objectives in other EU countries. -Create an educational alliance between sports clubs and schools.-Sport, cultural and environmental training for young people.-Participate in the Vogalonga in Venice with youth crews from EU countries.-Disseminate the model during the project and within European Week of Sport"

There is a significant difference in the sports industry between men's and women's federation licences in 90% of sports in most European countries. It is not easy to pinpoint the factors that influence this (financial issues, gender stereotypes, etc.), but what is clear is the looming influence and pressure exerted by the patriarchal discourse on gender equality in sport, not to mention the influence of the media.IIt is not the case that modern sport has managed to do away with sexism and it is still essential to design an equal perspective that allows for the elimination of the gender gap in federated sport, while also tackling the role played by the media as an informative and co-educational tool that needs to be nourished by the presence of women role models who also reflect achievements, efforts and, sports habits and offer new sports examples based on equal, diverse and multilateral participation. GAP WOMEN is geared towards achieving a primary objective centred on promoting women’s participation in sport in order to increase the number of women’s federation licences while also promoting inclusive and sustainable sport. To this end, it will take as its starting point a preliminary study about the current situation of the gender gap in sport and will empower federations and other organisations by offering training (online to drive digitalisation in the industry) and tools to further good practices. Effective communication strategies and inclusive and sustainable gender-parity sport events will be set up to raise awareness, sensitise and stimulate women’s involvement in sport while encouraging the community to dismantle preconceived sexist mindsets and stereotypes.GAP WOMEN is aimed at adult women aged 18-50, including ones from vulnerable groups, and also organisations, federations, clubs and public authorities which need to take on board the commitment to promoting sport for equality, social integration, sustainability and economic development.

"Outdoor Sports in Nature for Skills Development (OUTSPO) is a ""Partnerships for collaboration "" project to encourage participation in sport and physical activity in nature as well as to promote voluntary activities in sports. Furthermore, in the 2017 Eurobarometer survey (European Commission, 2018) the main motivations for participation in sport or physical activity are improved health (54%) and fitness (47%).
