About the Program

This program will be hosted by the coordinating country, Austria, with Youth Power. Patterns of women’s participation in sport and the impact on women’s participation within the existing systems of each will be discussed. As part of the youth focus discussion on the reasons that prevent women from being more active, a group work will be conducted among all participants to get the views of young women and discuss the main reasons. Our aim is to examine and raise awareness on how to increase the number of women in sports teams based on strategies and teaching techniques. At the end of the project, the information learned through non-formal learning techniques will be used to produce a handbook on “How to Coach Better Sport and Gender Coaching for Women”. At the end of the program, the purpose of the program will be put into practice by organizing inclusive activities for the participant groups.

This project with 6 different institutions is supported by the Austrian National Agency under the EU Erasmus+ program. International Active Cities Association is involved in the project as a partner organization. The project call will be published on our page very soon.
