ORIENT - Multi-Stakeholder Event in Graz, Austria, on June 14, 2023

Building fairer and more inclusive societies has become an ever-growing challenge with young people lacking concrete tools for participating in community life. Sports can play an important role in enhancing the connection among different social groups and promoting a sense of belonging to a shared community.

The ORIENT project chose orienteering as a grass-root initiative capable of promoting the active participation of vulnerable young people.

We will spend an afternoon sharing the results and experiences of the ORIENT project activities and discovering our local context during the event in Graz, Austria on June 14, 2023, together with our partners the Orienteering Club Graz and the Austrian Orienteering Association at the premises of ASVÖ Styria, Hergottwiesgasse 260, Graz-Puntigam (Tramway line 5, Station Maut Puntigam or Brauquartier).

Programme 13:30 -16:30
