Healthy Workplaces Campaign
In Europe, in many workplaces, workers are exposed to dangerous substances. Exposure to such substances is more common than you might think, and, in fact, may occur in almost all workplaces. They are a source of major safety and health concerns.
A dangerous substance is any solid, liquid or gas that can cause damage to the safety or health of workers. Exposure can occur through inhalation, skin penetration or ingestion.
In addition, the Healthy Workplaces Campaigns is an initiative of the European Agency for Safety & Health at Work. It raises awareness about the impact of new digital technologies on work and workplaces and the associated occupational safety and health (OSH) challenges and opportunities. It also provides a platform for the exchange of good practice solutions.
In fact, the objective of the EFCS is to create safer and healthier workplaces in order to improve the well-being of everyone at work.

The EFCS is partner of the European Week of Sport since the first edition. Each year, EFCS joins the #BeActive campaign and takes part in and organises events as part of European Sports Week in September. So in 2023 EWoS amounted to over 37 000 events and 11 million participants.
House of sport
The House of Sport is a joint initiative established by several leading organisations in the sport and active leisure sector. It comprises 22 partner organisations of which 4 have their physical offices in the House of Sport premises.
Moreover, the main objective of this initiative is to benefit from working together in an organised cross sectorial approach and raise awareness on the benefits of sport and physical activity. Furthermore, the partners aim at joining forces in order to share and coordinate strategic goals for the overall development of the sport sector.
Sport and Citizenship
Sport and Citizenship is a think tank created in Brussels in September 2007, a few weeks after the adoption of the European Commission’s White Paper on sport.
Today, it is the only think tank in Europe, whose social objective is the analysis of sporting politics and the study of sport’s societal impact. Independent and apolitical, Sport and Citizenship has ten years of expertise and benefits from a recognition by public authorities and stakeholders of European sport. Therefore, it is regularly consulted by international and European institutions, Member States, sports movements and civil society which recognise it as a privileged interlocutor in this field.
