"Less than two years before the 2024 European Championship, we are on the threshold between conceptualization and implementation. The anticipation increases. And so is the responsibility towards us as organisers," said Bernd Neuendorf of the DFB.

"For the first time in the history of the EURO, we have ensured that sustainability goals, such as respect for human rights and the environment, are fully enshrined in the official tournament regulations", said UEFA's Alexander Ceferin.

The organizers of EURO 2024 have already taken important steps to back up their words. For example, the tournament's match schedule has been designed to minimize travel for teams and supporters. At the same time, the ten host cities will fully rely on the existing stadiums and facilities to host the matches.
