The European University Sports Association staff, joined by all participants and volunteers of the European Universities Rowing Championship 2025, celebrated together the International Day of University Sports (IDUS) in Bydgoszcz, Poland, also preparing for the upcoming celebration of the European Week of Sport (EWOS).

As every year since 2016, when the International Day of University Sport (IDUS) was proclaimed by the United Nations Education, Science and Culture Organisation (UNESCO), this day aims to create links between universities and their local communities through sport, physical activity, and healthy living, taking the leading role.

The #LetsIDUS initiative presents an opportunity to share knowledge on key issues relating to the development of sport, to improve awareness of the importance of sport in educational institutions and showcase the work of university sport bodies.

IDUS activities will continue and carry through the upcoming weeks, combining with the upcoming European Week of Sport #BeActive, which is celebrated every year from September 23-30. EUSA will be celebrating both with a few activities.

EUSA will continue the celebrations of #LetsIDUS and #BeActive campaign at upcoming events in October, such as the EUSA General Assembly and EUSA-FISU Strategic Dialogue, held in Zagreb, Croatia, October 9-12.
We would also like to invite our members, partners, and other related entities, to unitedly celebrate IDUS and EWOS with us, on their own preferable way and also share the events and activities with us.
