The INCLUSION PLUS project reached another significant milestone with the successful organisation of the transnational project meeting in Bratislava, held during the European Week of Sport 2026.

The meeting brought together partners from Slovakia and Malta for several days of cooperation, discussion, and exchange of experiences focused on the shared ambition of promoting social inclusion through sport.

Following months of online collaboration, the face-to-face meeting provided an important opportunity to evaluate the progress achieved so far, discuss ongoing activities, and define the next steps towards successful completion of the project objectives.

The INCLUSION PLUS project continues to strengthen its European cooperation as partners from Slovakia and Malta prepare for a new chapter of joint activities – an onsite transnational meeting in Bratislava, organised during the European Week of Sport 2026.

After months of online cooperation, knowledge exchange, and implementation of project activities, the meeting will provide a valuable opportunity for partners to reconnect face-to-face, share achievements, and shape the future direction of the project.

The INCLUSION PLUS project is entering another important phase as partners from Slovakia and Malta prepare for the next transnational project meeting, which will take place in Bratislava during the European Week of Sport 2026.

The upcoming onsite meeting will provide an important opportunity for partners to meet in person, review the progress achieved so far, exchange experiences, and plan the next steps of the project implementation.

The INCLUSION PLUS partnership reached another important milestone with the organisation of its midterm online meeting, bringing together partners from Slovakia and Malta to review progress, exchange experiences, and coordinate the next stages of project implementation.

The online meeting provided a valuable opportunity for partners to reflect on the activities achieved so far, discuss ongoing tasks, and ensure the successful continuation of the project according to its objectives.

A central element of the INCLUSION PLUS project is the creation of PLANET SPORT – a unique collection of real-life stories demonstrating how sport can inspire individuals, support personal development, and contribute to social inclusion.

PLANET SPORT brings together authentic experiences from people whose lives have been positively influenced by sport. These stories highlight different journeys, challenges, achievements, and moments of connection created through participation in sporting activities.

Sport is much more than movement – it is an environment where people learn, grow, and develop essential life skills.

This idea is at the heart of INCLUSION PLUS, a European cooperation project connecting partners from Slovakia and Malta to explore how sport can contribute to education, inclusion, and social development.

Throughout the project implementation, partners exchange experiences and good practices focusing on the educational potential of sport.

The implementation of INCLUSION PLUS continues with a clear ambition: to transform local experiences into European inspiration and demonstrate the role of sport as a driver of inclusion and positive social change.

The project brings together organisations from Slovakia and Malta that share a common mission – creating opportunities for people to participate in sport, connect with others, and experience the benefits of an active lifestyle.

A New Chapter Begins in Wonderful Malta! Valletta was the starting point of INCLUSION PLUS, our new Erasmus+ Sport project dedicated to promoting inclusion through sport.

The kick-off meeting brought together partners with a shared vision, strong commitment, and plenty of new ideas. Since then, we have already made significant progress and are proud to present the activities and achievements accomplished so far. Together, we believe that every step, every swim, and every shared experience brings people closer. 

The first steps of INCLUSION PLUS have been successfully launched in Malta, marking the beginning of a European cooperation journey dedicated to promoting inclusion through sport.

The project partners recently met in Malta for the kick-off activities, creating the foundation for future collaboration, knowledge exchange, and joint initiatives.

Malta, January 2026 – The INCLUSION PLUS project officially kicked off this month with its first Transnational Project Meeting, setting a dynamic and well-structured start for all partners. The meeting established a shared understanding of project objectives, clarified individual roles, and aligned expectations, providing a solid foundation for the work ahead. Early discussions around the PLANET SPORT concept and the INCLUSION PLUS platform ensured that all partners started on the same page, reducing potential fragmentation in later project phases.
