The feasibility study of a transnational Euregiade, funded by the EU and the province of Gelderland within the framework of Interreg V-A Germany-Nederland, was completed with the participation of the Willibald Gebhardt Institute (WGI) at the end of 2021.

 

The idea of an Euregiade is to set new impulses for cross-border cooperation in the tradition of the Euregio sports festivals of the 70s/80s in view of the accompanying effects on the sports sector in clubs, schools and municipalities caused by the Corona pandemic. Results of an online survey among German and Dutch municipalities show that, about two thirds of the participating municipalities are positive and open to the idea of an Euregiade.

 

Next steps will be to communicate the results of the study to all Euregio municipalities and to hold information events and discussions with the Wetholders and district/city sports associations.
