""A tournament like this would benefit society and strengthen gender equality," said Celia Sasic of the 2029 Women's Euros being held in Germany. In her role as vice president of the German Football Association (DFB), the former Germany player is responsible for equality and diversity. Sasic, who twice won the Euros with the national team, is cautiously optimistic that Germany will be awarded the hosting rights. "But in the end, it's a competition and an election process; you can't predict the outcome," she noted."
""The decision rests with the 20-member UEFA Executive Committee, which is to vote on December 3 at the headquarters of football's European governing body in Nyon, Switzerland. The result is expected at around 5 p.m. CET. UEFA President Aleksandar Ceferin of Slovenia chairs the committee. Sixteen of the committee's members are elected by the UEFA Congress, two are appointed by the European Football Clubs Association, and one represents the European Leagues Association.""

Sixteen committee members are elected by the UEFA Congress, two are appointed by the European Football Clubs Association, and one represents the European Leagues Association. Hans-Joachim Watzke sits on the committee but cannot vote because Germany is a bidder. Germany's bid slogan is "WE'29 Together we will rise" and frames the tournament as a means to promote women's football and strengthen gender equality across Europe.
