Introduction
Learn with us! Ever wondered what factors contribute to successful Eco-friendly Sports Events?
Based on extensive research by the GETS consortium; we have developed an online course aimed to provide a deeper knowledge and understanding coupled with valuable tips on how to organise more environmentally friendly, sustainable, and accessible sports events. The educational course is meant to support organisations on a grassroots sport level but can also serve as a practical tool for young leaders and sport event organisers interested in the topic.
The course is divided into 5 modules. There is a quiz at the end of each section to help the reader retain the information they are engaged with. We recommend starting from Module 1 and finishing with Module 5 but it is possible to select any module at any time and complete it.
The topics covered in this e-learning are as follows:
- Module 1: Sustainability and introduction
- Module 2: Communication & Visibility
- Module 3: Planning & Logistics
- Module 4: Partnership & Networking
- Module 5: Best practices so far
This valuable tool is accessible to the wider public. To enrol on it you just have to click on the button “Apply Here” and fill in the form with some personal information. After that you will receive an email with your username and password to access the platform, where the course is hosted.
We hope this common effort and the information shared will support further knowledge-gathering and exchange efforts between organisations and individuals – together we can be more conscious, and responsible, and work to maintain a planet that is less polluted and greener!.
