Dear  friends of sport ,

2014 is slowly but surely coming to an end. This year has marked a new milestone for the recognition of the sport and active leisure sector across Europe with the entry into force of the awaited Erasmus+ programme and its accompanying Sport Chapter.

At the dawn of 2015, we at EOSE look forward to sustaining and strengthening the cooperation with all of you to further tackle the education and employment challenges of the sector and to pursue our vision of a sport and active leisure sector playing its full potential in the economic, health and social development of Europe and Member States.

We are delighted to have been elected at as EOSE Executive Board members during the latest General Assembly and we feel it is our responsibility to work for the common good. We will do our best to work in continuity while as well feeding the wind of change as current changes in the world of sport imply the necessary connection between studies and research, business and policy making.

May you hear the call and be the change!

Season’s greetings

Vilma Cingiene and Mairit Pellinen
EOSE Executive Board Members
