Once again, BRAVO is excited to be part of a beautiful story that is about to be written! We are thrilled to announce that the kick-off meeting for the project ‘’Women4Sport’’ has been successfully concluded! The new project will have amazing activities and thus, leave a positive impact on everyone involved.
On the 22nd of February, a kick-off meeting was held on the premises of the BiH Olympic Committee, marking the start of the Erasmus+ project ‘’Women4Sport’’. The coordinator of this two-year project is the Olympic Committee of Bosnia and Herzegovina with project partners: Verlab Institute; the Olympic Committee of Albania, the Montenegrin Olympic Committee, the Croatian Olympic Committee, and the Olympic Committee of Slovenia.
The kick-off meeting served as an amazing opportunity for partners to discuss the work packages and the next steps of the project implementation that will take place over the next 24 months. The partners took part in the interactive workshop that aimed to highlight the importance of the project.
During the meeting, each partner had the chance to present their organization. It became evident that their expertise and diversity of skills would gradually contribute to project success. The partners established clear communication channels and protocols to ensure great collaboration.
The “Women4Sport” Erasmus+ project is of exceptional importance as it encourages and promotes the equality of women in the spheres of top management and leadership positions of Olympic committees in the countries of the Western Balkans. We are excited to embark on this journey and bring more positive changes to the society of BiH!
