Celebrate Europe's Day

May 9th is Europe Day. It is the right moment to reflect upon the european project and everything we have achieved in the last 70 years. Celebrate Europe is to gather wills and citizens with different characteristics towards common goals. Also, through sports, with this initiative, we will pedal towards a more solid, safer and resilient Europe, to face the pandemic crisis and other adversities that may arise.

Promote sports

The appearance of the coronavirus brought drastic changes to the life´s of millions of people all over the world, and forced governments to adopt social distance measures to avoid the propagation of the virus.

Following an initiative that dates from 2015, the "Be Active Campaign" (integrated in the European Sports Week), the European Comission as launched under the #BeActiveAtHome, a new campaign on the social networks to motivate those confined at home to remain active.

The European Commission invites everyone to participate in this initiative, and share through social networks, suggestions of new ideas for physical activity, using hashtag #BeActiveAtHome and refering @EUSport on Twitter, or @european_youth_eu on Instagram.

Pedal the distance of 2670 Km

Why achieve the distance of 2670 Km on bycicle? Simple: it is the distance (in a straight line), between the Europe Direct Madeira Information Centre headquarters, and the Berlaymont building, headquarters for the European Commission in Brussels.

We want this message to reach Brussels, and count on your help to achieve it.
