Bewährte Verfahren

This project strengthened the network of organisations concerned with disabled sport. The campaign began behind schedule, so organisers were under pressure from the start. Organisers pulled the network together in order to make the necessary preparations for each of the four games. Despite preparing for a one-off event, the effort that went into organisation led to a more long-term benefit for the network.

An Evaluation of the UEFA EURO 2008 Social Responsibility Projects (short version)

10.08.2016

Hintergrund
The objective of the project was to promote the theme that players of all abilities can participate in the game. Two national teams from four different disabilities played against each other in two halves of approximately seven minutes each. The matches started about 90 minutes before each of the four quarter-finals of the UEFA EURO 2008 tournament.
