Training Seminar – Promoting the new Council of Europe Convention:  Safe, secure, and welcoming sports events!

In co-operation with the Lithuanian Ministry of the Interior, the Education and Sports Department and Football and Basketball Associations, the Council of Europe / European Union joint project ProS4+ organised a training seminar in Vilnius (Lithuania) from 13-15 March 2018.

 

The training seminar entitled “Safe, secure and welcoming sports events: Promoting the Council of Europe Convention on an Integrated Safety, Security and Service Approach at Football Matches and Other Sports Events” aimed to promote the integrated approach through the demonstration of principles enshrined in the new Convention CETS 218 and the good practices inherent to Standing Committee Recommendation (2015)1.

 

It brought together, among others, senior policy makers, NFIP personnel, match commanders, club safety officers, municipality authorities responsible for organising sports events, representatives of football and basketball associations, fan representatives and private security sector.  Other European partners such as UEFA, SD Europe and Centre for Access to Football in Europe (CAFE) also contributed to this training event.

 About ProS4+

Promoting and Strengthening the Council of Europe Standards on Safety, Security and Service at Football Matches and Other Sports Events

The ProS4+ project (1 July 2018 - 31 March 2021) aims to offer tailor-made responses to the emerging challenges and current trends in the fields of safety, security and service at football matches and other sports events. It promotes the standards set out by the new 2016 Council of Europe Saint-Denis Convention and its integrated approach to safety, security and service so that individuals and groups feel comfortable and appreciated when attending a football match or other sports event, inside or outside a sports ground.

The integrated approach of the Saint-Denis Convention reflects the need for government agencies, local authorities, clubs, police and supporters’ organisations to work together to ensure that sports events, especially football events, which gather great numbers of spectators, are safe and secure and that the events are welcoming for all.

The Council of Europe already developed a consolidated recommendation of the T-RV Standing Committee (Rec (2015)1) that provides guidance to the countries in revising their relevant policy to comply with good standards and practices. The ProS4+ project team develops online learning tools, carries out in-country trainings, conducts surveys and drafts action plans across Europe in order to achieve these objectives.
