Mini interviews – get to know the people behind Euro’Meet

A successful conference depends on a strong programme, engaging activities, and an inspiring setting. But above all, it is about the people who take part. Participants are the ones who share knowledge, open doors, and together create memorable experiences. That is why you can already get to know some of the individuals who will be contributing to Euro’Meet 2026 in Sundsvall through our series of mini interviews. 

Experience a UNESCO World Heritage

The conference takes place in proximity to Höga Kusten (High Coast), a UNESCO World Natural Heritage site known for its dramatic coastline, stunning landscapes, and unique Nordic nature. Just a short distance from Sundsvall, the area offers unforgettable opportunities for outdoor adventures and connecting with nature.

There will be opportunities to explore the area before and after the conference, with special offers on tours.

Conference Themes

Togetherness & The potential in a strong outdoor movement

Focusing on collaboration and collective action, this theme explores how working together — as organisations, communities, and countries — can strengthen the outdoor movement and tackle societal challenges like sedentary lifestyles, climate change, and loneliness.

Access & Accessibility

This theme is about making outdoor spaces and activities available to everyone, regardless of age, ability, or background. It covers managing nature areas for outdoor sports,  improving physical access to nature, reducing barriers to participation, and ensuring inclusive opportunities in clubs and outdoor programs. There will be a special focus on the unique allemansrätten (public’s right to use nature regardless of land ownership).

Inclusion & Diversity

Focusing on welcoming everyone into the outdoor sports movement, this theme highlights the importance of diversity, inclusion and public health — cultural, social, and demographic. It’s about creating environments where all people feel invited, respected, and able to fully participate in outdoor activities in nature.

A first draft of the programme will be published early in 2026.
