INTERNATIONAL MEETING C ZERO SPORT TOOK PLACE IN NOVI SAD
23.09.2023
In the period September 20th and 23rd, 2023, in the city of Novi Sad, Republic of Serbia, an international partnership meeting was held for the "Carbon Neutral Sports Club Network – C ZERO SPORTS CLUB" project. During the meeting, the "Carbon Footprint Measurement Program for Sports Organizations," created for the project's purposes, was presented, demonstrated, and discussed. The results obtained from the C ZERO SPORTS CLUBS study, as well as the future goals and activities of the project, along with the tasks and responsibilities among the partners, were also addressed. The consortium consists of 7 partner organizations from Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Serbia, and Turkey.
The "Carbon Neutral Sports Club Network – C ZERO SPORTS CLUB" project aims to encourage small European sports clubs to understand and take climate conservation actions. It is essential for sports clubs to adopt an eco-friendly management approach by starting to use digital tools and taking responsibility for the environment. They play a crucial role in engaging in local activities that go beyond sports, gaining community support. Through the network of carbon-neutral sports clubs that we plan to establish, we will develop a roadmap for eco-friendly activities that we will plan and implement within sports clubs in the future. These activities will be related to eco-friendly club management, including the use of recycled materials, eco-friendly lamps, bicycles, and the organization of attractive activities for planting trees and more.
The project aims to create a "Network of Carbon Neutral Sports Clubs." First and foremost, a carbon footprint measurement program will be developed, including both ecological and sports activities tailored to specific needs. This program will be implemented by sports clubs. After sports clubs pilot this program, it will evolve into a carbon footprint measurement application, to be used by a larger number of sports clubs. A network of carbon-neutral sports clubs will also be established, where the use of the developed application will be mandatory. Through this network, the measurement of the carbon footprint will be popularized, and more sports clubs, and later non-governmental organizations, will join it. In this way, as sports clubs, we will fulfill our responsibility in combating climate change.
The C ZERO SPORTS CLUB project is co-funded by the Erasmus+ program of the European Commission.
