About the Project

SIESSail – Slovenia, Italy, Estonia, and Serbia sailing together – is a project co-funded by the European Union, connecting five partners from four countries with the aim of bringing sailing closer to a broader and more diverse community. The project combines sport, sustainability, and inclusion, promoting sailing as an accessible, safe, and environmentally friendly lifelong activity.

With a focus on education, cooperation, and knowledge exchange, the project strengthens inclusive approaches in sailing, encourages environmental awareness, and contributes to the development of modern sailing education, while promoting a healthy lifestyle, community building, and European cooperation.

Cooperation

We believe that the best ideas are born through collaboration. The SIESSail project connects sailing clubs, coaches, and sailors from different countries, encouraging the exchange of knowledge, experience, and best practices. By working together, we are building a stronger, more connected European sailing community.

Sustainability

Sailing is an inherently sustainable sport, and we aim to strengthen this advantage even further. Through education, we promote responsible behavior on the water, respect for marine and freshwater ecosystems, and the use of wind as a clean energy source. Small actions on the water can have a significant positive impact on the environment.

Inclusion

Sailing must be accessible to everyone. SIESSail supports the development of inclusive programs that enable the participation of people of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities, including people with disabilities. With an open approach, we create an environment where everyone feels welcome and equal.

Sport for All

Sailing is not reserved only for professionals. It is a sport for children, youth, adults, and seniors; for beginners and experienced sailors alike. SIESSail promotes sailing as a healthy, safe, and fun activity that strengthens the body, mind, and team spirit, allowing everyone to discover the joy of movement on the water.
