Cultural exchange through sports

What is the importance of sport for cultural exchange? Can sport is a tool for inclusion? 05-13 August 2018 (two travel days included)

Various barriers (economical, geographical, social), technological developments, cyber world, intensive education life and work-future anxiety are removing youth from socialization.
Therefore; it is aimed that young people who come together from different cultures enter into cultural interaction through sports and become more social individuals. Sport can provide this contribution in two respects;
• contribution of sport activities directly to the individual (increased health, happiness, improved communication skills, increased adaptation to teamwork)
• Indirectly, that is, using the sport as a tool to acquire various knowledge and skills, to create awareness
Taking advantage of these features of the sport; It is aimed to be individuals who are more sensitive to their surroundings, have increased self-confidence, adapted to teamwork, socialized, different cultures, willing to recognize new people and adapt to new circles more quickly.
We're looking for both hosting organization(1) and partner organizations (3)
