The Ministry of Education, Vocational Training, Physical Activity and Sports of the Government of the Canary Islands, through its Vice-Ministry of Physical Activity and Sports, has been developing for several months the program Advancing in sustainability with sport, which aims to reaffirm the solid commitment of Canarian sport to the ecological transition and the protection of the environment.
This programme, which began at the end of 2023 and is currently in its final stretch, seeks to involve and raise awareness among all sport on the islands to define environmental criteria that adapt to the different sports modalities.
As a result, a guide to good environmental practices is being designed to improve sustainability and optimise the environmental management of organisations, facilities and sporting events in the Canary Islands.
