What is the project about ?

This project will gather at least five organisations from five different EU countries from September 2017 to August 2020. First, we intend to build an efficient network of partners working with different but complementary skills to strengthen their capacities to integrate migrants to our societies by using sport and non-formal education. Second, we aim to develop sport activities (basketball and ball sports) for migrants, refugees and minorities (children, youth and adults) regardless of their physical abilities, that is to say everyone, including those distant from sports practice (such as disabled people or women).

The project should be comprised of three dimensions : building a significant expertise on the target group (background and challenges); developing an extensive knowledge on the stakes and challenges that local authorities and communities face in welcoming migrants (what are the discriminatory behaviours and speeches?; what are the main difficulties that migrants encounter on the territory?; etc.); identify good practices in formal and non-formal education, particularly through basketball and other ball sports, with the concern to propose ludic activities for all (regardless of gender or handicap).

We would see the project starting with a seminar in France during which partner organisations would exchange about how they use sport as a way of integrating people. This seminar aims at precisely explaining our respective actions at local level. Experts and speakers would support participants in reflecting on their practices and identifying areas of improvement and cooperation as well as the project orientations.

We would like our partners to be actively involved in the project-design phase. We look forward to hearing about your ideas, advices and good practices that could be reused in the application.
