A new project was launched for the Budapest Sports service provider. The partners of the City, Green, Go!
Projects met on January 27 at Budapest’s famous ice rink to kick off the EU-funded project, which will run for two years from December 2022 to November 2024.
“City, Green, Go!” aims to promote environmentally-friendly sporting practices, primarily by encouraging citizens to be more active. The project will promote physical activity in urban settings and raise awareness of the importance of environmental protection. The project’s main deliverable is a directory that guides a wide range of stakeholders (municipalities, sports federations, clubs, environmental organizations, companies, educational institutions etc.) to work together to raise citizens’ physical activity levels and environment-consciousness at the same time.
The project will be coordinated by the Budapest Sport Service Provider Nonprofit Ltd. The project mission will be managed by a Consortium composed of the Institute of Studies for the Integration of Systems (Isinnova), a research organization who aims to move towards more sustainable policies, Sport and Citizenship, a European Think tank which advocates for the integration of sport and physical activity as a cross-cutting tool for public policies, SandSi (Sport and Sustainability International) an NGO which aims to accelerate sustainability in and through sport, the International Sport and Culture association (ISCA) a global umbrella association that is open to organisations working within the field of recreational sports and physical activity for all. The partnership is supported by the associated partner of the Budapest Municipality.
