MAIN PROBLEM THE PROJECT ADDRESSES

Statistics show that 90% of young people use computers and watch TV every day (Eurostat). This naturally leads to less physical activity, and consequently higher obesity and other health problems (WHO statistics show that the prevalence of obesity nearly doubled between 1980 and 2018). At the same time, youth have less time for live communication with their peers; thus, can develop further social barriers.

​

AIM OF THE PROJECT

1. To promote social inclusion, equal opportunities, and awareness of the importance of health-enhancing physical activity through grassroots sports for underprivileged youth.

2. To promote voluntary activities in sport.

​

TARGET GROUPS

• Youth willing to volunteer in sports initiatives and use their skills in a multicultural environment, or simply participate in sports camps across the EU;

• Other youth & sports organizations in project partner countries (and later on across Europe);

• Youth, sport volunteers, and organizations, as well as the general public across the project countries, will also increase awareness of the importance of social inclusion, equal opportunities, and health-enhancing physical activity through increased participation in, and equal access to, sport for all.

The project was co-funded by the Erasmus+ program of the European Union.
