NowWeMove EVS
Start date: Aug 30, 2014, End date: Aug 29, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The “NowWeMove” campaign provided the opportunity for 8 young people from different European countries to be EVS volunteers in the office of the International Sport and Culture Association (ISCA), based in Copenhagen, Denmark. The main theme dealt with was grassroots sport and its different components - sport and health, sport and young people, sport for disadvantaged groups - through the implementation and coordination of the NowWeMove campaign, an ISCA initiative to tackle physical inactivity all over Europe by engaging local MOVE Agents and local organisations in the provision of sport and physical activity opportunities for all. The project is an expression of ISCA’s commitment to build bridges between people, countries and cultures through the promotion of grassroots sport and its social and health benefits. This project not only allowed the participating volunteers to be involved as active European citizens in ISCA, based in Copenhagen, but it also made an impact all over Europe by promoting European values, volunteering and healthy lifestyles. It provided the volunteers with a unique learning experience. Through their involvement in a wide range of activities they improved key competencies and gained a wide range of skills such as teamwork and project management skills. ISCA and sending organisations gained increased inspiration and capacity as regards international and intercultural competence, and better networking opportunities for the future as a result
