Objectives

In 2012, 24.8% of the European Union's population, about 124.5 million people, were at risk of poverty or social exclusion. It is on the basis of these data from the European Commission that there is a willingness on the part of the youth group Recreativo de Regufe to develop skills based on a sharing of experiences and critical thinking on this subject in order to become active citizens and with the capacity and skills to combat this problem that affects the European Union and the world at large. According to the EU Cohesion Policy, based on the Europe 2020 Strategic Plan, one of the 11 priorities of this document, specifically thematic objective number nine, reads as follows: "Promoting social inclusion, combating poverty and any form of discrimination ". Therefore, it is the European Commission's objective to remove at least 20 million people from the risk of poverty by the year 2020. The InclusionBall project - The Next Sport comes from the European realization and awareness of the problem we are living with today about inclusion. When addressing the issue of inclusion we refer to a number of areas, including the social inclusion of people with disabilities, young and old, migrants, ethnic minorities, people living in disadvantaged areas, and others. Thus, in order to develop skills, skills and exchange experiences of inclusion, the project InclusionBall - the next sport aims at the promotion of integrative methods, in different areas, through the promotion of sports and sports-based dynamics. Sport is one of the tools capable of breaking down language barriers and social barriers. In this way, based on the work already developed by Regufe Recreation Group, the project will aim at initiatives and discussion on the inclusion theme, complemented by in situ work related to this thematic With the project InclusionBall - The Next Sport we plan to provide young people with different opportunities that, for reasons related to their social and economic condition, life events and other issues, would not be possible. Thus, it is essential to search for the ideas partners to achieve these objectives. Thus, after a search and knowledge of the work of various associations we have assembled a network of 6 international partners that we consider ideal for the successful development of the project. The partners represent different backgrounds and experiences across Europe from Romania, Bulgaria, Italy, Slovakia and Turkey. The Italian organization is composed of university students, secondary students and young graduates. The Leader will be a member of the organization with extensive experience in the field. The Slovakian organization is an organization that develops programs at local level from workshops, discussions, contests, among others and the international level as Exchanges, Formations and EVS. The Bulgarian organization is an organization focused on Sport, focusing on reviving sport, education through sport, integration through sport, volunteering in the field of sports and entrepreneurship skills. The Turkish organization is a youth association that works on the personal development of the young people who make up the association and will bring a reality, tools and experiences useful to the project. The Romanian organization is an experienced association and will be an important asset in the development of the project. The partners in Romania and Turkey were partners that we have been in contact with in other international organizations (TCA) and who develop a work that we consider interesting to include in the project InclusionBall - The Next Sport. This network of partners with extensive experience in the field of youth, with local and national projects in various themes, and in international projects, from youth exchanges, training courses, EVS projects, etc. It is remarkable the great experience of partners in working with young people in the field of inclusion in the various areas. The content and theme of the InclusionBall - The Next Sport was agreed with all partners through a constant communication network with the coordinators of the various associations and their workers, via email and social networks, which compiles the concerns, issues and proposals from partners interested in the project. Based on the basic structure of the project, each institution is proposing activities and issues related to the project and of common interest, based on the trust, cooperation and transparency of the network of partners.
