PROMOTING DUAL CAREER


THROUGH EDUCATION OF YOUNG


JOURNALISTS


The key objective of the Promoting Dual Career Through Education of


Young Journalists (PRODUCE) project is to develop and improve skills and


educate young reporters through volunteering at European Universities


Championships and Games while also promoting dual career of athletes.


The project’s aim is to create both an
educational peer to peer network among
young journalists in Europe while simul-
taneously providing guidelines for active
learning, giving non-formal knowledge
to budding reporters through practical
experience at various European Universi-
ties Championships.


PRODUCE will look to guide the young
reporters while also educating trainers
to share the learnt expertise with their
students, with the target age being 18-



  1. A workshop will also be created and


presented at the European Universities
Games in Belgrade, Serbia in 2020.

The two-year project will therefore strive
to promote dual career using successful
examples of top athletes who combine
both study and sport, using university
sport events to promote university sport
for high school students and encourage
them to strive for Dual Career.

The final results of the project will include
educating trainers, pointing out impor-
tant topics for non-formal education of
young reporters and writing guidelines for

improving the experience of volunteers at
grassroots-level at major sport events.
These guidelines will be used at EUSA and
other sport events that will ensure the
legacy and sustainability of the project.

The transnational project includes the
following partners: AZS Sport club Poznan
(POL); SportIndeks (SER); KK Hrvatski
Dragovoljac (CRO); AIPS Europe (MAL)
and the European University Sports As-
sociation (SLO).

This project is co-funded by Erasmus+
Programme of the European Union.
