“Mobility to fight unemployment by granting volunteering opportunities to young adults”

“Mobility to fight unemployment by granting Volunteering Opportunities to young adults” (MOVO) is a Small Collaborative Partnership in the field of Sports aiming to support the mobility of volunteers, coaches, managers and staff of non-profit sports organisations. The target group will be people aged 18+ interested in volunteering to explore the possibility of a career in sports by opening their sports clubs and strengthening their competencies further. The MOVO project is a response to the European policy of supporting volunteering in the sports sector to promote employability, economic growth, and social engagement. The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the sports sector, affecting not only grassroots sports but also professional sports and the entire sports industry. The pandemic has led to mobility restrictions and lockdowns, leading to an unemployment emergency in the sports sector.”

“MOVO is a 24-month project from Turkey, Italy and Greece that aims to address the sectorial priorities of the sports field within the Erasmus Plus Cooperation Partnerships, with a focus on promoting employability through sports and encouraging social inclusion and equal opportunities in sports (Project Code 101134465)”
