November 2020

On the 3rd of November the 9th virtual meeting of the DONA project partners was held with the presence of Joan Carles Marin and Mariona Casanovas (Associació Esportiva Carles Vallbona), Sasa Cecic Erpic (University Ljubljana), Leonard Zammit Munro (Swieqi Phoenix Volleyball Club Malta), Sylvia Karres (De SportMaatschappij Foundation), Joerg Foerster (European Athletes as Student Network) and as observers of the project management, Jordi Escribà and Alla Krinitsyna (B.LINK).
Main objectives of the meeting had been, to reflect on the situation with COVID-19 and the possibility to finish the Pilot project implementation, to discuss the Evaluation procedures of the Pilot Programme (WP4, to discuss the mesures to reinforce the communication of the project progress and results (WP5).
Due to the COVID-19 situation and the challenges to finish the Pilot project implementation within 2020, the partners pointed out, that only online workshops are actually possible, which does not fit really to the needs of the project, but need to be taken into account.
The clubs within the project are in continuous contact with their players and try to support their individual challenges in fulfilling the needs of the “dual career”. So partners agreed on slightly changes of the working program for the next weeks.
