EUROPEADA Expert Group Refines Guidelines for the Future of the Tournament

Following the online meeting in March, the EUROPEADA expert group has now met in person for the first time. As part of the recent FUEN Forum of European Minority Regions in Novi Sad (Serbia), 20 representatives from twelve different minority teams came together on 28 June to jointly work on the strategic development of EUROPEADA, the football tournament of Europe’s autochthonous national minorities.

The expert group, established last year, follows an inclusive approach: all teams that have participated in a EUROPEADA so far were invited to take part. The aim is to pool the experiences from previous tournaments and translate them into concrete recommendations for future editions.

During the meeting in Novi Sad, the guidelines for EUROPEADA were further developed and refined in close coordination with the hosts of EUROPEADA 2028, the Slovenian and Friulian FUEN member organisations from Italy. Representatives from the host region of Friuli Venezia Giulia also took part in the discussions.

The meeting focused on five thematic areas that are to serve as structural pillars of EUROPEADA in the future: the tournament system, accommodation and transport, the cultural programme, media work and partnerships. Implementation measures in cooperation with the host region were also discussed and agreed upon.

The final guidelines are expected to be presented at the FUEN Congress 2025 in Bolzano (South Tyrol, Italy).
