During its implementation, the participating clubs are expected to organize multisport activities for fans and citizens of their local communities in the model of the Olympic Games, spreading the message and values that these Games represent and improving the sport spirit and cultural exchanges between the participants. Moreover, it pursues to facilitate the integration of minorities in local communities and fight the discrimination.

In addition to the procedural part of the two projects that Olympiacos is leading, the club representatives had the opportunity to discuss new sports initiatives at European level as well as about the ways of further EMCA development. Olympiacos’ proposals received a positive response securing the universal acceptance of the attendees. In addition, the club organized social events for the foreign visitors such as a visit to the Acropolis and the ‘’Kallimarmaro’’ Stadium as much as meals in Piraeus. All participants were impressed and fully satisfied with the organization and hospitality by Olympiacos, recognizing the greatness of Olympiacos and its leading role in the EMCA in recent years.
