As part of ENSE's continuing work on European sport education projects, we are looking for a person to fill a part-time role as Project Manager.
The full role description and application information can be found here.
This three-year European project aimed to improve the healthy lifestyles of Europeans through
awareness and change, driven by physical activity, healthy eating, and a positive mindset. Featuring a world-class consortium of project partners and supported by ENSE, this project generated extensive insightful and interactive learning materials.
Highlights include the creation of standards for 'Healthy Lifestyle Promoters,' the education of 163 of these promoters through an exclusive training course, and a free 'Lifestyle Scan' for 445 participants. The project also produced 29 mini videos on healthy living, a popular website visited by over 78,000 individuals, a Youtube channel, and a free New Health App for Android and iOS. An informative e-book encapsulating the strategies about lifestyle coaching and behavior change was also released. Financed by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union, New Health 2022 was spearheaded by the New Health Foundation and collaborated with multiple international partners.
The journey doesn't end here, a new application has been submitted to ERASMUS, called Healthy Lifestyle Network Europe, which aims to further develop New Health's objectives.

The Erasmus+ project "Virtual Reality Approach to Anti-Doping Learning" (ViRAL) aims to promote innovative and impactful anti-doping education through a virtual reality game targeting competitive and recreational athletes. New technologies can greatly increase the acceptance and impact of anti-doping education among a variety of target groups. Through the development of a Virtual Reality program, VIRAL project recognizes the need to move forward and improve the way anti-doping education is developed, delivered, and assessed.
In May 2023, Sheffield Hallam University hosted the fourth meeting of the VIRAL project in Sheffield. Partners met and discussed the project activities, and they planned the evaluation of the VR game and the train the trainers activities. In the coming weeks, the VR game will be implemented and evaluated and tested, and trainers will be supported to integrate VR in their anti-doping.
The next project meeting will take place in November 2023 in Greece. For more information and updates, you can visit the project website.
