Antoine Brandenburg of JOGG speaker at the 17th EFDN ‘#Morethanfootball’ Conference in Liverpool
Antoine Brandenburg, Advisor at ‘JOGG, Healthy youth healthy future‘ is the next confirmed speaker at our 17th EFDN #Morethanfootball Conference in Liverpool on 9 & 11 May 2022.
Antoine Brandenburg is advisor at JOGG, Healthy youth healthy future. He advises local goverments in the Netherlands by implementing the JOGG-approach as an integral method to create a healthy social and physical environment of youth. Within JOGG, Antoine is as well involved in the ‘Healthy Sports Environment’ team, especially to integrate the social impact of professional football clubs within the JOGG-approach. In the past he worked for several Dutch local governments. He also worked as a professional youth coach at NAC Breda and in Vancouver (Canada).
In this presentation, Antoine and Esther will share their knowledge and experience on how to create a social and physical healthy environment by using a community based approach. This approach (called JOGG) involves and challenges everyone in the community to make a positive impact for a healthy future for our youth. It targets not only the child’s behavior, but in particular it focuses on making a healthier social and physical environment. To achieve this, JOGG works together with policy makers from the national and local government, as well as with professionals from the public and private sectors. Also professional football clubs can create a valuable impact within the community based approach. In this presentation, Antoine and his colleague will inspire you with examples from the Netherlands on how you can create a healthy environment and be a healthy role model.
