Council of Europe: World Snowboard Federation (WSF) Joins EPAS

The WSF is very honoured to join the EPAS. Following a decision by the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe on 29 May 2024, the World Snowboard Federation, the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) and Rugby Europe have joined the Consultative Committee of the Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport (EPAS), bringing the total amount of members to 30.

Dominic Kuhn, president of the WSF, states: „I am very much looking forward working with my colleagues on the Consultative Committee of the Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport. By having a voice in the European sports movement, we will use the dialogue between public authorities, sports federations, and NGOs to make our sport more ethical, more inclusive and safer. Not just in Europe – this will hopefully also have a global impact.”

The Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport (EPAS) provides a platform for intergovernmental co-operation. It facilitates dialogue between governmental representatives, the sports movement, other non-governmental organizations (NGOs), athletes, coaches and referees, corporate business and local authorities. The Enlarged Partial Agreement on Sport is composed of three statutory bodies – the Governing Board, the Consultative Committee and the Statutory Committee. The Consultative Committee is composed of European sport organizations representing the grassroots sports movement and wider, including international federations, sports bodies, etc.
