Our program is built on a foundation of measurable progress and institutional integrity. We don’t just offer a vision for 2030;
we offer a roadmap of specific, tangible commitments designed to elevate European chess to its highest level.
We invite every national federation to join us as partners in this architecture of progress, ensuring that the legacy
of European chess is defined by transparency, growth, integrity, and global leadership. Our commitments are centered on
our core pillars: a Federations-First model, the expansion of growth and value, investment in people, organizational
modernization, the continued building of trust, and the cultivation of strategic partnerships.
Detailed information about our Vision and Commitments can be found here.

The ECU 2030 team has officially unveiled the ECU Social Chess Strategy 2026–2030, a streamlined roadmap
designed to transform chess into a permanent tool for social inclusion across all 54 European federations.
Prepared by PD Dr. Prabitha Urwyler, Candidate for ECU Treasurer and Leader of ECU Social Projects,
the strategy focuses on practical, governable goals that build on the momentum of the 2025 Year of Social Chess.
The core mission is simple: by 2030, every federation should have the capacity to use chess for education,
health, and community engagement through a shared European framework.
