The Ministries of Defence and the Environment will assist the organisers in organising the 16th Summer European Youth Olympic Festival, which will be hosted by Banská Bystrica from 24 to 30 July 2022. The ministers Jaroslav Naď and Ján Budaj took over the patronage of two important areas of preparation – security and sustainability.

The EYOF 2022 Banská Bystrica Organising Committee wants to present Slovakia in Europe as a capable organiser of major sporting events and at the same time as a country worth visiting and developing economically beneficial activities. For this reason, they strive for cooperation and coordination at all levels – from local to national.

They have also approached the Ministers of Defence Jaroslav Nád and the Environment Ján Budaj in pursuing their goals. Both were pleased to respond to the offer to take over the patronage of the security and sustainability projects and promised the assistance of their ministries in the implementation of the individual steps.

According to the letter of Jaroslav Naď, the Ministry of Defence of the Slovak Republic is ready to participate in the security of the EYOF 2022 Banská Bystrica, especially through the Military Police, within the limits of generally binding legal regulations.

The Ministry of the Environment will provide the organisers with professional cooperation and environmental advice.

 

Both ministers highlighted the Organising Committee’s efforts to put the environment and sustainability issues at the forefront to make EYOF 2022 Banská Bystrica as green as possible.

 

“EYOF 2022 Banská Bystrica will not only be a week full of sport and competition for young people from all over Europe. We are pleased that the Ministries of Defence and the Environment will also help us in our preparations. In the coming weeks and months we are already preparing, also in cooperation with the Slovak Olympic and Sports Committee and the City of Banská Bystrica, many activities for the public that will promote not only sport, movement, the values of Olympism and fair play, but also sustainability, ecology and environmentalism through positive role models and examples. Our programmes are designed for primary and secondary school pupils and students, but also the general public,” says Peter Hamaj, Executive Director of the Organising Committee.
