SPORT
Sport and culture are the expression of shared passions, identities and emotions. Both are sectors which combine strong economic and social dimensions and postulate for a specific treatment which takes into consideration their specificities and social values.
With the implementation of the Lisbon Treaty the EU is empowered to adopt a sport policy that should take into account the specific nature of sport.
KEA aims to inform sport stakeholders about the impact of EU regulation and decisions on their activities with a view to help them formulate a EU public affairs strategy.
KEA offers legal expertise in media rights management and its capacity
to conduct international research on sport issues. It helps sport organisations
access EU funding and raise their profile in Brussels.
