INTRODUCING ENGSO:
European National Sports Confederations and National Olympic Committees, if they are the national umbrella organisations for sports, form the association European Non-Governmental Sports Organisation? (ENGSO) which is a non-profit making or distributing organisation with public responsibilities. This means that the members of ENGSO represent the national sport in its broadest sense - from children and youth sport, over sport for all activities to elite sports.
ENGSO presently has 40 national umbrella sports organisations as members. ENGSO is today the only European sports organisation having been granted consultative status by the Council of Europe.
AIMS OF ENGSO:
- to promote and to defend the independence and autonomy of sports on Europe;
- to meet the political and economical impact of EU on sport in Europe;
- to assist in improving sports development - from children and youth sport, over sport for all activities to elite sports in the member countries.
- to take active part in development of the East-West and North-South co-operation;
- to raise the status and credibility of sports in the member countries, as well as actively combat the negative tendencies in sports;
- to support voluntarism as an important factor for development in society;
- to develop democracy in sports;
- to promote equality between men and women in sports;
- to build bridges between different organisations dealing with sport for all activities.
