Programme for Workshop.pdf
Dear Colleague in sport
I am writing to invite you or a representative from your department to a workshop on the Erasmus
project on the Benefits of Outdoor Sports for Society which we are holding in Brussels on 28th
November.
The project is focused on developing an agreed methodology to measure the economic value of the
social benefits of outdoor sports. We have had 3 distinct stages to the project:
1. A literature review that provides robust data on the social benefits gained through outdoor
sports
2. The development of the model to capture the economic value of these benefits within a given
project.
3. Testing of the model with 12 case studies across Europe.
We have now completed all three elements and are currently finalising the toolkit for this work and
looking forward to sharing it widely with the sector at this event.
This has been an exciting piece of work and we hope that the methodology can be widely used to
showcase the value of sport and especially outdoor sports.
We would be delighted if you or a member of your team were able to be in attendance at the workshop
and I have attached a programme for the day to let you see what we are doing. This also provides a
great opportunity for networking and sharing in outdoor sports development at a European level. All
bookings should be made via the Eventbrite online booking.
Best wishes
Mike McClure
