Introducing Ultimate Voices Europe (UVE) – a podcast dedicated to diversity in European Ultimate!
We’re excited to share a new project from the EUF Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee: Ultimate Voices Europe, a podcast dedicated to giving a platform to the diverse voices within the European ultimate frisbee community.
Hosted by two members of the DEI Committee – Jakob and Anika – this monthly podcast will highlight the stories, struggles, and successes of individuals and organizations that often fly under the radar. From gender and queerness to ethnicity, age, class and more, we’re diving into the many ways identity shapes experience in our sport.
🎧 What to expect:
An ultimate podcast giving insights into your favourite athletes’/coaches’ backgrounds and experiences, beyond on-field performances, team roster and their latest rankings.
Honest conversations with various guests from all over Europe.
Spotlights on community leaders, role models, clubs, and grassroots projects, best practices and success stories.
An opportunity to learn new things in the realm of diversity, inclusion, identity, intersectionality and more.
This isn’t just about ultimate — it’s about the people who make it what it is. Our goal is to open up space for different conversations within our sport.
“I believe our community is home to so many interesting stories and identities, beyond just what is happening on the fields. But, as often in life, what we talk about most is performance, and not human experience. With this podcast I hope to change that.” - Jakob
“When Jakob reached out to me with this idea, I knew that we have to make it happen and I’m so glad we did. I look forward to exploring the stories of our guests together and learning from their experiences.” - Anika
