ENGSO Youth adds Move4Nature to the European Youth & Sport Platform 2025

As part of the ongoing Move4Nature project, ENGSO Youth organised two impactful activities on 6 June 2025 during the European Youth and Sport Platform 2025 (EYSP25) in Munich. The events, a Move4Nature walk and a run, aimed to promote physical activity among young people while highlighting the importance of environmental sustainability.

A total of 50 participants joined the initiative, collectively covering an impressive 250 kilometers, with each individual contributing 5 km. The events were led by ENGSO Youth staff and two inspiring young delegates from the Sustainable Development Working Group 2023–2025, Ariadna and Denise. This was a great example of how you can build physical activity and moving in nature into events. 

 

Immediately following the run and walk, a series of interactive sustainability workshops took centre stage, reinforcing the connection between sport and ecological responsibility:

 

  • Sport Technology: Striving for Sustainability or Results?
    Led by Bence Garamvölgyi from Budapest Sports Service Provider, this session explored how urban infrastructure and grassroots sport can adapt to climate challenges, using real-world projects like sustainable renovations of Budapest’s ice rink.


  • Beyond Europe: Sustainable Sport Actions with the Global South
    Spearheaded by Dr Ben Sanders of the International Platform on Sport & Development, this workshop examined global perspectives, encouraging low-carbon, inclusive sporting initiatives that bridge Europe and the Global South.
