Africa-Press – Ghana. Ghana Football Association (GFA) General SecretaryProsper Harrison Addo (Esq.) is in Portugal taking part in phase II of the Social Inclusion Education & Training Exchange for Sports Professionals, Coaches, and Volunteers (SEITE SPORTS) programme.

The European Union is co-funding the seminar, which is being held in collaboration with the Football Associations of Ireland, Portugal, and Finland.

The Portuguese Football Association will host this phase of the project from Monday, April 11 to Friday, April 15, 2021.

The project’s goal is to develop competencies for inclusive football.

After taking over the mantle from previous hosts, Ireland, the Football Association of Portugal is hosting this phase of the project to share its knowledge, expertise, and practical examples with the other Football Associations.

Workshops, seminars, visits to football clubs, football programs, and training (online platform, inclusion awareness/fair play) are all part of the program’s format.

The project will also attempt to close the gap between theory and practice by improving competencies, knowledge sharing, and peer-to-peer learning opportunities.

The final exchange seminar, which will be held in Ghana, will provide more opportunities for greater face-to-face networking among the four (4) Football Associations involved in the project, as well as engage wider local actors in Ghana in the discussion on sport and social inclusion (football and social responsibility).

Other representatives include GFA Club Licencing Manager Julius Ben Emunah, Dr. Bella Bello Bitugu, Director of Sports at the University of Ghana, Director of the GFA Competitions Department Sena Akoto Ampaw, Austin Wontepaga Lututerah, Ag.
