The POWER consortium has been very busy over the summer to raise awareness of the project through our online channels. From September on, we step out of the online sphere and each partner will organise in-person Info Days to further spread our message. We will present the project, invite expert speakers on the topic of women athletes’ portrayal in the media and provide lots of time to let participants further discuss the topic.
Our consortium leader, ANCE from Greece, along with BAIS from Hungary will hold their Info Days in September, in conjunction with their European Week of Sport campaigns.
The Info Day in Greece will take place on 30 September 2025 at Impact Hub Athens.
“These Info Days offer valuable opportunities to present the project’s objectives, share insights from our research, and engage key stakeholders in discussions that will help shape the next phases of the project. At ANCE, we are especially excited to host our Info Day during the European Week of Sport — a timely occasion to reinforce the message of equality and inclusion in and through sport. We are expecting at least 50 participants, including athletes, coaches, representatives of the media, sports organisations and NGOs active in sports and gender equality”, explained Eirini Vlachaki, POWER Project Coordinator and General Manager at ANCE.
“Through these Info Days, each partner brings national perspectives to the forefront by highlighting the main findings from their national report and drawing comparisons with other countries in the consortium. This helps to identify both shared challenges and context-specific issues, while engaging local stakeholders in the conversation. By creating space for dialogue, reflection and collaboration, we are laying the groundwork for lasting change in how women athletes are represented”, added Christina Liaska, ANCE’s Project Manager.
Mundus Bulgaria will organise their Info Day in October, Isidem from Italy will hold theirs in February 2026, while UFEC from Spain and Sport Evolution Alliance from Portugal will organise their Info Days in the spring of 2026.
