Final report - Study

Publication metadata

This report compiles the results of the Erasmus+ Cluster Meeting on the Integrity of Sport, which grouped together project leaders and policy-makers on 4-5 December 2018. This final report follows the meeting agenda, devoted to two policy sessions and three workshops on good governance, match-fixing and doping. It will feed the policy work of the European Commission and other policy-makers and the reflections on the 2021-2027 Erasmus programme, and may form a fruitful ground for future initiatives for the participants and other interested stakeholders. Integrity in sport has become one key... priority of the EU agenda for sport and was naturally chosen as an essential topic for this new Cluster Meeting. It was organised by the Executive Agency for Education, Audiovisual and Culture (EACEA), in close cooperation with the Directorate General for Education, Youth, Sport and Culture of the European Commission (DG EAC). Cluster Meetings are planned in the EU Work Plan for Sport and this edition built on the success of the two previous Cluster Meetings on Health-enhancing Physical Activity (December 2017, EACEA) and the Economic Dimension of Sport (April 2018, DG EAC). The Cluster Meeting brought together coordinators of 35 Erasmus+ projects, representatives of EU Member States, the Council of Europe, UNESCO, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), and sport experts – in total 110 participants assembled in Brussels. They shared experiences and good practices, they discussed policy-relevant outcomes of EU funded projects, and identified areas for development.
