Approach and implementation
* Denna text är maskinöversatt * The project has been divided into WPs where the actors have been differently involved, but where exchanges of experience have been enabled through meetings and communication. The approach has been driven by knowledge and target group analyzes as well as collaboration between business, municipalities, the sports movement and academia. All solutions have been tested against target groups to ensure relevance. The implementation has also been adapted along the course of the project for resource optimization, GDPR-related reasons and changes in needs.
